The king of Israel had abandoned
|
The Lord's commands
|
And had followed the baals
|
And the Queen had killed the prophets of the Lord
|
And she lived with the prophets of baal
|
Just one of the Lords prophets was left
|
And that was Elijah
|
A true prophet from God
|
He went before the people and said:
|
|
How long will you waver between - two opinions?
|
How long will you stand on both sides?
|
|
I'm the only one of the Lords prophets
|
But baal has four hundred and fifty
|
Get two bulls, let them choose
|
One for them and one for me
|
Let them cut in pieces and put it on the wood
|
But not set fire on it
|
I will prepare the other bull and put it on the wood
|
But not set fire on it
|
|
Then you call on the name of your god
|
And I will call on the
|
Name of the Lord
|
The god who answers by fire he is God, he is the Lord
|
The baals prophets began
|
And they called on baal from morning till noon
|
They shout louder and louder and louder
|
And they get no answer, no
|
|
Elijah arranged the wood, cut the bull
|
And laid it on the wood
|
Fill four large jars with water
|
And pour it on the offering and the wood
|
Do it again, do it a third time
|
Let it be known today that You are God
|
The fire of the Lord fell
|
And burned up everything
|
