1 Kings 18:26 in Context — 1 Kings 18
24 Puis invoquez le nom de votre dieu; et moi, j’invoquerai le nom de l’Éternel. Le dieu qui répondra par le feu, c’est celui-là qui sera Dieu. Et tout le peuple répondit, en disant: C’est bien!
25 Élie dit aux prophètes de Baal: Choisissez pour vous l’un des taureaux, préparez-le les premiers, car vous êtes les plus nombreux, et invoquez le nom de votre dieu; mais ne mettez pas le feu.
26 Ils prirent le taureau qu’on leur donna, et le préparèrent; et ils invoquèrent le nom de Baal, depuis le matin jusqu’à midi, en disant: Baal réponds nous! Mais il n’y eut ni voix ni réponse. Et ils sautaient devant l’autel qu’ils avaient fait.
27 A midi, Élie se moqua d’eux, et dit: Criez à haute voix, puisqu’il est dieu; il pense à quelque chose, ou il est occupé, ou il est en voyage; peut-être qu’il dort, et il se réveillera.
28 Et ils crièrent à haute voix, et ils se firent, selon leur coutume, des incisions avec des épées et avec des lances, jusqu’à ce que le sang coulât sur eux.
