And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud; for he is a god: either he is musing, or he is gone aside, or he is on a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth and must be awaked.

And in the middle of the day, Elijah made sport of them, saying, Give louder cries, for he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or he may have gone away for some purpose, or he may be on a journey, or by chance he is sleeping and has to be made awake.

Και περι την μεσημβριαν ο Ηλιας μυκτηριζων αυτους ελεγεν, Επικαλεισθε μετα φωνης μεγαλης· διοτι θεος ειναι η συνομιλει η ασχολειται η ειναι εις οδοιποριαν η ισως κοιμαται και θελει εξυπνησει.

And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.
