25 And Eli Yah says to the prophets of Baal, Choose one bullock for yourselves and work it first; for you are many; and call on the name of your elohim, but set no fire.
26 And they take the bullock he gives them and they work it; and call on the name of Baal from morning even until noon saying, O Baal, answer us. - and there is neither voice, nor answer: and they leap on the sacrifice altar they worked.
27 And so be it, at noon, Eli Yah mocks them and says, Call out with a great voice; for he is elohim: either he meditates or withdraws or journeys or perhaps he sleeps and wakens.
28 And they call with a great voice and incise themselves according to their judgment with swords and javelins, until blood pours over them:
29 and so be it, noon passes, and they prophesy until the holocaust of the offering; and there is neither voice nor any answering, nor any hearkening.
