因为以色列百姓又事奉神又事奉巴力, 所以以利亚要让他们做一个选择, 他们到底要跟随谁。以利亚说, 作耶和华先知的, 只剩下我一个人, 巴力的先知, 却有四百五十个人。给我们两只牛犊, 巴力的先知可以挑选一只, 切成块子, 放在柴上, 不要点火。我也预备一只牛犊, 放在柴上, 也不点火。你们求告你们神的名, 我也求告耶和华的名, 那降火显应的神, 就是神。
All the people of Israel answered Elijah and said, It is well spoken. The prophets of Baal prepared their sacrifice and then began crying out to their god to send fire. O Baal, hear us! they shouted, even jumping up on the altar at times. Do you think anyone answered, boys and girls?Why not?I Kings 18:26 says, But there was no voice, nor any that answered.
众民回答说, 这话很好。巴力的先知将牛犊预备好了, 就求告巴力的名说:巴力阿, 求你应允我们, 他们还在所筑的坛周围跳。小朋友们, 会人回答他们吗?圣经上说, 却没有声音, 没有应允的。他们跳了一上午也没有用。
All morning the people of Israel watched the prophets of Baal putting on their show. At noon Elijah mocked them and said, Cry louder, maybe your god is talking or chasing his enemy. Maybe hes taking a trip or perhaps hes asleep and you need to wake him up! The 450 false prophets cried even louder, and began to cut themselves with knives til they were bleeding. Still no answer and no fire. They kept this up til time for the evening sacrifice. Baal could not answer them now, nor ever, because Baal was a false god.
