1 Kings 18:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 Then call ye on the name of your god, and I will call on the Name of the Lord: and then the God that answereth [a]by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered, and said, It is well spoken.
25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you a bullock, and prepare him first, (for ye are many) and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.
26 So they took the one bullock that was given them, and they prepared it, and called on the name of Baal from morning to noon, saying, O Baal, hear us: but there was no voice, nor any to answer: and they [b]leapt upon the altar that was made.
