1 Kings 18:28 in Context — 1 Kings 18

26 E eles tomaram o boi que lhes foi dado, e prepararam-no, e invocaram no nome de Baal desde a manhã até o meio dia, dizendo: Baal, responde-nos! Mas não havia voz, nem quem respondesse; entretanto, eles andavam saltando próximo do altar que haviam feito.

27 E aconteceu ao meio dia, que Elias se ridicularizava deles, dizendo: Gritai em alta voz, que deus é: talvez esteja conversando, ou tem alguma ocupação, ou está caminhando; acaso dorme, e despertará.

28 E eles clamavam a grandes vozes, e cortavam-se com espadas e com lancetas conforme a seu costume, até jorrar o sangue sobre eles.

29 E quando passou o meio dia, e eles profetizaram até o tempo do sacrifício da oferta, e não havia voz, nem quem respondesse nem escutasse;

30 Elias disse então a todo o povo: Aproximai-vos a mim. E todo o povo se chegou a ele: e ele reparou o altar do SENHOR que estava arruinado.
