1 Kings 18:27-29

New King James Version

²⁷ And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, “Cry ^[a]aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.” ²⁸ So they cried aloud, and ^(A)cut themselves, as was their custom, with ^[b]knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them. ²⁹ And when midday was past, ^(B)they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice. But there was ^(C)no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention.
