1 Kings 18:18-21

And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I have not troubled
<05916> (8804)
Israel
<03478>_;
but thou, and thy father's
<01>
house
<01004>_,
in that ye have forsaken
<05800> (8800)
the commandments
<04687>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and thou hast followed
<03212> (8799) <0310>
Baalim
<01168>_.
Now therefore send
<07971> (8798)_,
[and] gather
<06908> (8798)
to me all Israel
<03478>
unto mount
<02022>
Carmel
<03760>_,
and the prophets
<05030>
of Baal
<01168>
four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
and fifty
<02572>_,
and the prophets
<05030>
of the groves
<0842>
four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>_,
which eat
<0398> (8802)
at Jezebel's
<0348>
table
<07979>_.
So Ahab
<0256>
sent
<07971> (8799)
unto all the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and gathered
<06908> (0)
the prophets
<05030>
together
<06908> (8799)
unto mount
<02022>
Carmel
<03760>_.
And Elijah
<0452>
came
<05066> (8799)
unto all the people
<05971>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
How long
<05921>
halt
<06452> (8802)
ye between two
<08147>
opinions
<05587>_?
if the LORD
<03068>
[be] God
<0430>_,
follow him: but if Baal
<01168>_,
[then] follow
<03212> (8798) <0310>
him. And the people
<05971>
answered
<06030> (8804)
him not a word
<01697>_.
{opinions: or, thoughts}

1 Kings 18:25-28

And Elijah
<0452>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the prophets
<05030>
of Baal
<01168>_,
Choose
<0977> (8798)
you one
<0259>
bullock
<06499>
for yourselves, and dress
<06213> (8798)
[it] first
<07223>_;
for ye [are] many
<07227>_;
and call
<07121> (8798)
on the name
<08034>
of your gods
<0430>_,
but put
<07760> (8799)
no fire
<0784>
[under].
And they took
<03947> (8799)
the bullock
<06499>
which was given
<05414> (8804)
them, and they dressed
<06213> (8799)
[it], and called
<07121> (8799)
on the name
<08034>
of Baal
<01168>
from morning
<01242>
even until noon
<06672>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
O Baal
<01168>_,
hear
<06030> (8798)
us. But [there was] no
<0369>
voice
<06963>_,
nor any that answered
<06030> (8802)_.
And they leaped
<06452> (8762)
upon the altar
<04196>
which was made
<06213> (8804)_.
{hear: or, answer} {answered: or, heard} {leaped...: or, leaped up and down at the altar}
And it came to pass at noon
<06672>_,
that Elijah
<0452>
mocked
<02048> (8762)
them, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Cry
<07121> (8798)
aloud
<01419> <06963>_:
for he [is] a god
<0430>_;
either he is talking
<07879>_,
or he is pursuing
<07873>_,
or he is in a journey
<01870>_,
[or] peradventure
<0194>
he sleepeth
<03463>_,
and must be awaked
<03364> (8799)_.
{aloud: Heb. with a great voice} {he is talking: or, he meditateth} {is pursuing: Heb. hath a pursuit}
And they cried
<07121> (8799)
aloud
<06963> <01419>_,
and cut
<01413> (8704)
themselves after their manner
<04941>
with knives
<02719>
and lancets
<07420>_,
till the blood
<01818>
gushed out
<08210> (8800)
upon them. {the blood...: Heb. poured out blood upon them}

1 Kings 18:40

And Elijah
<0452>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Take
<08610> (8798)
the prophets
<05030>
of Baal
<01168>_;
let not one
<0376>
of them escape
<04422> (8735)_.
And they took
<08610> (8799)
them: and Elijah
<0452>
brought them down
<03381> (8686)
to the brook
<05158>
Kishon
<07028>_,
and slew
<07819> (8799)
them there. {Take: or, Apprehend}
