ପ୍ରଥମ ରାଜାବଳୀ 18:26
ତେଣୁ ସମାନେେ ବୃଷଭଟିକୁ ନେଲେ ଓ ପ୍ରସ୍ତୁତ କଲେ। ସମାନେେ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳରୁ ମଧ୍ଯାହ୍ନ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ବାଲ ନାମ ରେ ପ୍ରାର୍ଥନା କରି କହିଲେ, ହେ ବାଲ୍ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କ ବିନତି ଶୁଣ। ମାତ୍ର କୌଣସି ଶଦ୍ଦ ହେଲାନାହିଁ କି କହେି ଉତ୍ତର ଦେଲେ ନାହିଁ। ସମସ୍ତ ଭବିଷ୍ଯଦ୍ବକ୍ତାଗଣ ସମାନଙ୍କେ ନିର୍ମିତ ୟଜ୍ଞବଦେୀର ଗ୍ଭରିପଟେ ନାଚିଲେ। ମାତ୍ର ଅଗ୍ନି ସଂଘଟିତ ହେଲା ନାହିଁ।
