glory
God's majesty and presence.
Where else “kavod” appears- 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.
Where else “yehva” appears- Tsevaotצְבָאוֹתtsevaot
Tsevaot
A name of God: the one who commands the armies of heaven and earth.
Where else “tsevaot” appears- Selahסֶלָהsela
Selah
Selah: a word found at the end of some stanzas of the psalms. It is probably a direction for the music or a pause; its exact sense is unknown, so it is left in Hebrew.
Where else “sela” appears
The context
9Lift up, gates, your heads, and lift them up, eternal doorways, and the King of glory will come in.
