1 Peter 1:1-2

1 Kings 18:24-40
24) Call you on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of Yahweh; and the God who answers by fire, let him be God. All the people answered, It is well spoken.
25) Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bull for yourselves, and dress it first; for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under.
26) They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any who answered. They leaped about the altar which was made.
27) It happened at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud; for he is a god: either he is musing, or he is gone aside, or he is on a journey, or peradventure he sleeps and must be awakened.
28) They cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them.
29) It was so, when midday was past, that they prophesied until the time of the offering of the [evening] offering; but there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any who regarded.
30) Elijah said to all the people, Come near to me; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the altar of Yahweh that was thrown down.
31) Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of Yahweh came, saying, Israel shall be your name.
32) With the stones he built an altar in the name of Yahweh; and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
33) He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood. He said, Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering, and on the wood.
34) He said, Do it the second time; and they did it the second time. He said, Do it the third time; and they did it the third time.
35) The water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.
36) It happened at the time of the offering of the [evening] offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
37) Hear me, Yahweh, hear me, that this people may know that you, Yahweh, are God, and [that] you have turned their heart back again.
38) Then the fire of Yahweh fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
39) When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, Yahweh, he is God; Yahweh, he is God.
40) and Elijah said to them, Take the prophets of Baal; don‘t let one of them escape. They took them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there.
1 Kings 19:1-14
1) Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
2) Then Jezebel send a messenger to Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I don‘t make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.
3) When he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.
4) But he himself went a day‘s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper-tree: and he requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is enough; now, O Yahweh, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.
5) He lay down and slept under a juniper-tree; and, behold, an angel touched him, and said to him, Arise and eat.
6) He looked, and, behold, there was at his head a cake baked on the coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drink, and laid him down again.
7) The angel of Yahweh came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.
8) He arose, and ate and drink, and went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb the Mount of God.
9) He came there to a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of Yahweh came to him, and he said to him, What do you here, Elijah?
10) He said, I have been very jealous for Yahweh, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and slain your prophets with the sword: and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
11) He said, Go forth, and stand on the mountain before Yahweh. Behold, Yahweh passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before Yahweh; but Yahweh was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but Yahweh was not in the earthquake:
12) and after the earthquake a fire; but Yahweh was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
13) It was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. Behold, there came a voice to him, and said, What do you here, Elijah?
14) He said, I have been very jealous for Yahweh, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and slain your prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
