1 Kings 18:31 in Context — 1 Kings 18
29 Lorsque midi fut passé, ils prophétisèrent jusqu’au moment de la présentation de l’offrande. Mais il n’y eut ni voix, ni réponse, ni signe d’attention.
30 Élie dit alors à tout le peuple: Approchez-vous de moi! Tout le peuple s’approcha de lui. Et Élie rétablit l’autel de l’Éternel, qui avait été renversé.
31 Il prit douze pierres d’après le nombre des tribus des fils de Jacob, auquel l’Éternel avait dit: Israël sera ton nom;
32 et il bâtit avec ces pierres un autel au nom de l’Éternel. Il fit autour de l’autel un fossé de la capacité de deux mesures de semence.
33 Il arrangea le bois, coupa le taureau par morceaux, et le plaça sur le bois.
