40 E disse-lhes Elias: Prendei aos profetas de Baal, que não escape ninguém. E eles os prenderam; e levou-os Elias ao ribeiro de Quisom, e ali os degolou.

41 E então Elias disse a Acabe: Sobe, come e bebe; porque uma grande chuva faz ruído.

42 E Acabe subiu a comer e a beber. E Elias subiu ao cume do Carmelo; e prostrando-se em terra, pôs seu rosto entre os joelhos.

43 E disse a seu criado: Sobe agora, e olha até o mar. E ele subiu, e olhou, e disse: Não há nada. E ele lhe voltou a dizer: Volta sete vezes.

44 E à sétima vez disse: Eu vejo uma pequena nuvem como a palma da mão de um homem, que sobe do mar. E ele disse: Vai, e dize a Acabe: Unge e desce, porque a chuva não te interrompa.
