Elijah said
to the prophets of Baal,
“Choose one of the bulls
and prepare it first,
since there are soOOOoo
many of you.
Call on the name of your god,
but do not light the fire.”
So they took the bull
given them
and prepared it.
Then they called
on the name of Baal
from morning till noon.
“Baal, answer us!”
they shouted.
But there was no response;
no one answered.
And they danced
around the altar
they had made.
At noon....
Elijah began to taunt them.
“Shout louder!” he said.
“Surely he is a god!
Perhaps he is deep in thought,
or taking a shit,
or traveling.
Maybe he is sleeping
and must be awakened.”
So they shouted louder
and slashed themselves
with swords and spears,
as was their custom,
until their blood flowed.
Midday passed,
and they continued
their frantic prophesying
until the time
for the evening sacrifice.
But there was no response,
no one answered,
no one paid attention.
