1 Kings 18:28-30

Contemporary English Version

²⁸ The prophets kept shouting louder and louder, and they cut themselves with swords and knives until they were bleeding. This was the way they worshiped, ²⁹ and they kept it up until time for the evening sacrifice. But there was no answer of any kind.

³⁰ Elijah told everyone to gather around him while he repaired the Lord's altar.
