OET (OET-RV) Midday passed and they continued raving all afternoon, but they didn’t hear any voice, and they got no answer or even any suggestion that their god was listening.
they were still raving

“they continued their wild behavior.” Prophets often acted in ways that seemed unusual or even crazy. In this case they were calling on Baal while dancing, shouting loudly, and cutting themselves with knives.

but there was no voice or anyone to answer; there was no one who paid any attention to their pleadings
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was as,passed the,midday and,raved until to,offering the,evening_sacrifice and,there_was_no sound/voice and,no answered and,no paid_attention )
These phrases share similar meanings and emphasize that no one responded to the prayers of the false prophets. Alternate translation: “but Baal did not say or do anything or even pay attention” (See also: figs-metonymy)

See how you translated this in [1 Kings 18:26](../18/26.md).
18:28-29 shouted . . . cut themselves . . . raved: The prophets of Baal demonstrated ecstatic behavior common in ancient pagan religions, but their efforts produced no response. Of course, there is only one true God (Deut 4:35; 6:4; Isa 44:8); all other hopes are doomed to failure (Isa 45:22).
