1 Kings 18:22-25

22Then saidH559 ElijahH452 unto the peopleH5971, I, even I only, remainH3498 a prophetH5030 of YhwhH3068; but Baal’sH1168 prophetsH5030 are fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376.

23Let them therefore giveH5414 us twoH8147 bullocksH6499; and let them chooseH977 oneH259 bullockH6499 for themselves, and cut it in piecesH5408, and layH7760 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under: and I will dressH6213 the otherH259 bullockH6499, and layH5414 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under:

24And callH7121 ye on the nameH8034 of your godsH430, and I will callH7121 on the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068: and the GodH430 that answerethH6030 by fireH784, let him be GodH430. And all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 and saidH559, It is wellH2896 spokenH1697.1

25And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168, ChooseH977 you oneH259 bullockH6499 for yourselves, and dressH6213 it firstH7223; for ye are manyH7227; and callH7121 on the nameH8034 of your godsH430, but putH7760 no fireH784 under.
