- 到了献晚祭的时候,先知以利亚近前来,说,亚伯拉罕,以撒,以色列的神,耶和华阿,求你今日使人知道你是以色列的神,也知道我是你的仆人,又是奉你的命行这一切事。
- 耶和华阿,求你应允我,应允我。使这民知道你耶和华是神,又知道是你叫这民的心回转。
- 于是,耶和华降下火来,烧尽燔祭,木柴,石头,尘土,又烧乾沟里的水。
- 众民看见了,就俯伏在地,说,耶和华是神。耶和华是神。
- 以利亚对他们说,拿住巴力的先知,不容一人逃脱。众人就拿住他们。以利亚带他们到基顺河边,在那里杀了他们。

- At the time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: "O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command.
- Answer me, O LORD, answer me, so these people will know that you, O LORD, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again."
- Then the fire of the LORD fell and burned up the sacrifice, the wood, the stones and the soil, and also licked up the water in the trench.
- When all the people saw this, they fell prostrate and cried, "The LORD -he is God! The LORD -he is God!"
- Then Elijah commanded them, "Seize the prophets of Baal. Don't let anyone get away!" They seized them, and Elijah had them brought down to the Kishon Valley and slaughtered there.
