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.

34 Puis il dit: Remplissez d’eau quatre cruches, et versez-les sur l’holocauste et sur le bois. Il dit: Faites-le une seconde fois. Et ils le firent une seconde fois. Il dit: Faites-le une troisième fois. Et ils le firent une troisième fois.
