1 Kings 18:21-23

New English Translation

²¹ Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long are you going to be paralyzed by indecision?^[a] If the Lord is the true God,^[b] then follow him, but if Baal is, follow him!” But the people did not say a word. ²² Elijah said to them:^[c] “I am the only prophet of the Lord who is left, but there are 450 prophets of Baal. ²³ Let them bring us two bulls. Let them choose one of the bulls for themselves, cut it up into pieces, and place it on the wood. But they must not set it on fire. I will do the same to the other bull and place it on the wood. But I will not set it on fire.
