Where else “atsat” 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.

19Look, like a lion he comes up from the thicket of the Jordan against the perennial fold; for in an instant I will make him run from it, and whoever is chosen I will appoint over it; for who is like me? And who will summon me? And who is this shepherd who will stand before me?
