NETBible

So they took a bull, as he had suggested,¹ and prepared it. They invoked the name of Baal from morning until noon, saying, “Baal, answer us.” But there was no sound and no answer. They jumped² around on the altar they had made.³

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “and they took the bull which he allowed them.”

²tn Heb “limped” (the same verb is used in v. 21).

³tc The MT has “which he made,” but some medieval Hebrew mss and the ancient versions have the plural form of the verb.
