1 Kings 18:31-33

Easy-to-Read Version

³¹ Elijah found twelve stones. There was one stone for each of the twelve tribes. These twelve tribes were named for the twelve sons of Jacob, the man who the Lord had named Israel. ³² Elijah used these stones to repair the altar to honor the Lord. He dug a small ditch around the altar. It was wide enough and deep enough to hold about 4 gallons^[a] of water. ³³ Then Elijah put the wood on the altar. He cut the bull into pieces and laid the pieces on the wood.
