With the Hebrew beneath

Proverbs 12:22, word by word

An abominationתּוֹעֲבַתtoavat

abomination

Abomination: something that a people or God rejects with disgust, above all idolatry and the practices God forbids; also a custom another people will not tolerate.

Where else “toavat” appears

to 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.
