1 Kings 18:31-33
English Standard Version
31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord came, saying, (A)“Israel shall be your name,” 32 and with the stones he built an altar in the name of the Lord. And he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two seahs[a] of seed. 33 (B)And he put the wood in order and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. And he said, “Fill four jars with water and (C)pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.”
