Elijah repairs the LORD’s altar that had been thrown down and builds an altar with twelve stones

엘리야가 무너진 여호와의 단을 수축하고 열 두 돌로 단을 쌓음

1 Kings 18:30–35: Elijah says to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people come near to him. He repairs the LORD’s altar that had been thrown down. Elijah takes twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the LORD’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.” With the stones he builds an altar in the LORD’s name. He makes a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed. He puts the wood in order, and cuts the bull in pieces and lays it on the wood. He says, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.” He says, “Do it a second time;” and they do it the second time. He says, “Do it a third time;” and they do it the third time. The water ran around the altar; and he also fills the trench with water. The Korean Revised Version names no one at 18:31 and says of Jacob, 이 야곱은 여호와께서 옛적에 저에게 임하여 이르시기를 네 이름을 이스라엘이라 하리라 하신 자더라 (this Jacob is the one to whom the LORD came of old, saying, Your name shall be Israel); at 18:35 it says only that the trench was full of water (도랑에도 물이 가득하게 되었더라); and it reads 송아지, a calf, where WEB reads “bull”.
