*
And Elijah came unto all the people ,
and said ,
How long halt ye between two opinions ca #
iph #?
if the LORD be God ,
follow him :
but if Baal Ba #
al #,
then follow him .
And the people answered him not a word .
*
Then said Elijah unto the people ,
I ,
even I only ,
remain a prophet of the LORD ;
but Baals prophets are four hundred and fifty men .
*
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 :
*
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 ,
let him be God .
And all the people answered and said ,
It is well spoken .
*
And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal Ba #
al #,
Choose you one bullock for yourselves ,
and dress it first ri #
shown #;
for ye are many ;
and call on the name of your gods ,
but put no fire under .
*
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 Ba #
al #,
hear us .
But there was no voice ,
nor any that answered .
And they leaped upon the altar which was made .
