YHWH
The personal name of the God of Israel, written in Hebrew with four letters, Y-H-W-H, without vowels. Out of reverence Jews stopped pronouncing it and read "Adonai" (Lord), so many Bibles put "the LORD" or "Jehovah". This translation keeps the four letters. The name is related to the verb "to be" (Exodus 3:14-15). He is not a god other than Elohim: "YHWH Elohim" is the same Creator God, called by his name.

5After that you will come to Gibeah of Elohim, where are the garrisons of the Philistines; and it will happen, as you come there to the city, that you will meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place, and before them harp and tambourine and flute and lyre, and they will be prophesying.
