Psalms 69:13, word by word

my prayer isתְפִלָּתִtefilati

prayer

Prayer: words addressed to God to ask, to intercede or to praise. Several psalms bear this name.

Where else “tefilati” 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.
