1 Kings 18:36-38

Contemporary English Version

³⁶ When it was time for the evening sacrifice, Elijah prayed:

Our Lord, you are the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel. Now, prove that you are the God of this nation,^[a] and that I, your servant, have done this at your command. ³⁷ Please answer me, so these people will know that you are the Lord God, and that you will turn their hearts back to you.^[b]

³⁸ The Lord immediately sent fire, and it burned up the sacrifice, the wood, and the stones. It scorched the ground everywhere around the altar and dried up every drop of water in the ditch.
