With the Hebrew beneath

Psalms 107:21, word by word

Let them give thanksיוֹדוּyodu

give thanks

To thank YHWH and praise him aloud for what he did.

Where else “yodu” appears

to YHWHיהוָהyhva

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.
