With the Hebrew beneath
Jeremiah 10:6, word by word
- YHWHיְהוָהyehva
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.

The context
5Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field they are, and they do not speak; they must be carried, for they do not walk. Do not fear them, for they do not do harm, and also to do good is not in them.”
