Pronounced: YAH-way  God’s personal name given to Moses.  Also called the  tetragrammaton   ("four letters").
Occurs about 6,800 times.  Translated “LORD” in English versions of the Bible, because it became common practice for Jews to say “Lord” (Adonai) instead of saying the name  YHWH .
Using the vowels of  Adonai  (Lord) and the consonants of  YHVH  (God), a 16th-century German translator incorrectly translated  YHVH  as  YaHoVah , resulting in the name  Jehovah . Yahweh is the more accepted spelling for God’s name.
God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ” — Exodus 3:14
“ I AM”  The One Who Is The Self-Existent One
God never changes.  His promises never fail.  When we are faithless, He is faithful.  We need to obey Him.
Pronounced: Yah   Shorter form of  Yahweh .  It is often used when combined with other names or phrases:  Hallelujah  means “Praise Yah (the Lord).”  Elijah  means “God is Yah (the Lord).”  Joshua  means “Yah (the Lord) is  my salvation.”
The L ORD  is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him. —   Exodus 15:2 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. —   Psalm 46:1
