36 At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today 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, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.”
