And the people answered him not a word. 22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, u remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: 24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, v let him be God. And all the people answered and said, 6 It is well spoken. 25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. 26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, 7 hear us. But there we was no voice, nor any that 8 answered. And they leaped 9 upon the altar which was made. 27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry 10 aloud: for he is a god; either he 11 is talking, or he 12 is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. 28 And they cried aloud, and cut y Baal's prophets slain. themselves, after their manner, with knives and lancets, till 13 the blood gushed out upon them. 29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the 14 offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was 14ascending. neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any 15 that regarded. 15 attention. z Ge.32.28. 30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me.
