Where else “yehi” 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.

8And now, take for yourselves seven young bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves; and Job my servant will pray for you, for only him will I accept, so as not to deal with you according to your folly; for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.”
