So Obadiah H5662 went H3212 to meet H7125 Ahab, H256 and told H5046 him: and Ahab H256 went H3212 to meet H7125 Elijah. H452

And he answered, H559 I have not troubled H5916 Israel; H3478 but you, and your father's H1 house, H1004 in that you have forsaken H5800 the commandments H4687 of the LORD, H3068 and you have followed H3212 H310 Baalim. H1168

So Ahab H256 sent H7971 to all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and gathered H6908 the prophets H5030 together to mount H2022 Carmel. H3760

Then said H559 Elijah H452 to the people, H5971 I, even I only, H905 remain H3498 a prophet H5030 of the LORD; H3068 but Baal's H1168 prophets H5030 are four H702 hundred H3967 and fifty H2572 men. H376

And call H7121 you on the name H8034 of your gods, H430 and I will call H7121 on the name H8034 of the LORD: H3068 and the God H430 that answers H6030 by fire, H784 let him be God. H430 And all H3605 the people H5971 answered H6030 and said, H559 It is well H2896 spoken. H1697

And they took H3947 the bullock H6499 which was given H5414 them, and they dressed H6213 it, and called H7121 on the name H8034 of Baal H1168 from morning H1242 even until H5704 noon, H6672 saying, H559 O Baal, H1168 hear H6030 us. But there was no H369 voice, H6963 nor H369 any that answered. H6030 And they leaped H6452 on the altar H4196 which H834 was made. H6213

And they cried H7121 aloud, H1419 H3605 and cut H1413 themselves after their manner H4941 with knives H2719 and lancets, H7420 till H5704 the blood H1818 gushed H8210 out on them.

And Elijah H452 said H559 to all H3605 the people, H5971 Come H5066 near H5066 to me. And all H3605 the people H5971 came H5066 near H5066 to him. And he repaired H7495 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 that was broken H2040 down.

And with the stones H68 he built H1129 an altar H4196 in the name H8034 of the LORD: H3068 and he made H6213 a trench H8585 about H5439 the altar, H4196 as great H1004 as would contain H1004 two measures H5429 of seed. H2233

And he said, H559 Do it the second H8138 time. And they did it the second H8138 time. And he said, H559 Do it the third H8027 time. And they did it the third H8027 time.

And it came H1961 to pass at the time of the offering H5927 of the evening sacrifice, H4503 that Elijah H452 the prophet H5030 came H5066 near, H5066 and said, H559 LORD H3068 God H430 of Abraham, H85 Isaac, H3327 and of Israel, H3478 let it be known H3045 this H2088 day H3117 that you are God H430 in Israel, H3478 and that I am your servant, H5650 and that I have done H6213 all H3605 these H428 things H1697 at your word. H1697

Then the fire H784 of the LORD H3068 fell, H5307 and consumed H398 the burnt H5930 sacrifice, and the wood, H6086 and the stones, H68 and the dust, H6083 and licked H3897 up the water H4325 that was in the trench. H8585

And Elijah H452 said H559 to them, Take H8610 the prophets H5030 of Baal; H1168 let not one H376 of them escape. H4422 And they took H8610 them: and Elijah H452 brought H3381 them down H3381 to the brook H5158 Kishon, H7028 and slew H7819 them there. H8033

You water H7301 the ridges H8525 thereof abundantly: H7301 you settle H5181 the furrows H1417 thereof: you make it soft H4127 with showers: H7241 you bless H1288 the springing H6780 thereof.

They drop H7491 on the pastures H4999 of the wilderness: H4057 and the little hills H1389 rejoice H1524 on every side. H2296
