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.

31 E tomando Elias doze pedras, conforme ao número das tribos dos filhos de Jacó, ao qual havia sido palavra do SENHOR, dizendo: Israel será teu nome;

32 Edificou com as pedras um altar no nome do SENHOR: depois fez uma sulco ao redor do altar, quanto cabiam duas medidas de semente.

33 Pôs logo a lenha, e cortou o boi em pedaços, e o pôs sobre a lenha.

34 E disse: Enchei quatro cântaros de água, e derramai-a sobre o holocausto e sobre a lenha. E disse: Fazei-o outra vez; e outra vez o fizeram. Disse ainda: Fazei-o a terceira vez; e fizeram-no a terceira vez.
