1 Kings 18:26-30

26And they tookH3947 the bullock whichH834 was givenH5414 them, and they dressed it, and calledH7121 on the nameH8034 of BaalH1168 from morningH1242 evenH5704 untilH5704 noonH6672, sayingH559, O BaalH1168, hearH6963 usH5414. But there was noH369 voiceH6963, norH369 anyH369 that answeredH559. And they leaped aboutH5921 the altarH4196 whichH834 was madeH6213.

27And it cameH1961 to passH1961 at noonH6672, that ElijahH452 mockedH2048 them, and saidH559, CryH7121 aloud: for he is a godH430; eitherH3588 he is musing, or he is goneH1961 aside, or he is in a journeyH1870, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.

28And they criedH7121 aloud, and cutH1413 themselvesH5921 afterH5921 their mannerH4941 with knivesH2719 and lancesH7420, tillH5704 the bloodH1818 gushedH8210 outH8210 uponH5921 them.

29And it was soH1961, when midday was past, that they prophesiedH5012 untilH5704 the time of the offering of the evening oblation; but there was neitherH369 voiceH6963, norH369 anyH369 to answerH6030, norH369 anyH369 that regarded.

30And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto allH3605 the peopleH5971, ComeH5066 nearH5066 unto meH413; and allH3605 the peopleH5971 cameH5066 nearH5066 unto him. And he repairedH7495 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 that was thrownH2040 downH2040.
