27 And at noon Elijah mocked them, and said, "Call loud, for he is a god: but he is talking, or occupied, or in the way, or haply he sleepeth, that he may awake!"
28 And they cried loud and cut themselves, as their manner was, with knives and lances, till the blood flowed on them.
29 And when midday was passed, they prophesied until it was time to offer. But there was neither voice nor answer nor any that regarded them.
30 Then Elijah said to all the folk, "Come to me." And all the people came to him. And he mended the altar of the LORD that was broken.
31 And he took twelve stones according to the number of the twelve tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came saying, "Israel shall be thy name."
32 And with the stones he made an altar in the name of the LORD. And he made a gutter round about the altar, able to receive two pecks of corn.
33 And he put the wood in order, and hewed the ox in pieces, and put him on the wood,
34 and said, "Fill four pitchers with water and pour it on the sacrifice and on the wood." And he said, "Do so again." And they did so again. Then he said, "Do it the third time." And they did so the third time.
35 And the water ran round about the altar, and the gutter was full of water also.
36 And when offering time was come, Elijah the prophet went to and said, "LORD God of Abraham, Isaac and of Israel, let it be known this day, that thou art the God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I do all these things at thy commandment.
37 Hear me, O LORD; hear me, that this people may know, that thou LORD, art the God, and that thou hast turned their hearts backward."
38 And there fell fire from the LORD and consumed the sacrifice and the wood and the stones and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the gutter.
39 And when all the people saw that, they fell on their faces and said, "The LORD, he is God, the LORD, he is God."
40 Then said Elijah unto them, "Lay hands on the Prophets of Baal — let not one of them escape." And when they had taken them, Elijah brought them down unto the brook Kishon, and slew them there.
