1 Kings 18:27-29
27
And at noon Elijah mocked them, saying, Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is musing, or he is relieving himself, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep and must be awakened.
28
And they cried aloud and cut themselves after their custom with swords and lances, until the blood gushed out upon them.
29
And as midday passed, they raved on until the time of the offering of the oblation, but there was no voice. No one answered; no one paid attention.
