1 Kings 18:27-29

27At noon Elijah started to make fun of them. “Shout louder, since he is a god. Maybe he’s thinking, relieving himself, or traveling! Maybe he’s sleeping, and you have to wake him!”

28So they shouted louder. They also cut themselves with swords and spears until their blood flowed. (This is what their ritual called for.)

29In the afternoon they continued to rant and rave until the time for the evening sacrifice. But there was no sound, no answer, no attention given to them.
