Where else “amar” appearsYHWH
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.

2Why did I come, and there was no one; I called, and there was no one to answer? Is my hand really too short to ransom? Or is there no power in me to deliver? Look, by my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish stink for lack of water, and die of thirst.
