1 Kings 18:21-23
21ElijahH452 cameH5066 nearH5066 to allH3605 the peopleH5971 and saidH559, “1HowH4970 longH5704H4970 will you 2hesitateH6452 betweenH5921 twoH8147 opinionsH5589? 3IfH518 the LordH3068 is GodH430, followH1980H310 Him; but ifH518 BaalH1168, followH1980H310 him.” But the peopleH5971 did not answerH6030 him a wordH1697.
22Then ElijahH452 saidH559 to the peopleH5971, “I 4aloneH905 am leftH3498 a prophetH5030 of the LordH3068, but Baal’sH1168 prophetsH5030 are 5450H702H3967H2572 menH376.
23Now let them giveH5414 us twoH8147 oxenH6499; and let them chooseH977 oneH259 oxH6499 for themselves and cutH5408 it up, and placeH7760 it on the woodH6086, but putH7760 noH3808 fireH784 under it; and I will prepareH6213 the otherH259 oxH6499 and layH7760 it on the woodH6086, and I will not putH7760 a fireH784 under it.
