Where else “zenachti” 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.
Where else “yehva” appearsElohim
The one true God, the Creator; the word is plural but means one.
Where else “elohe” appearshear prayer

Where else “eene” appears“I will bring them back”: the Hebrew form mixes “bring back” and “make dwell”; both are possible.
5And they will be like mighty men trampling in the mud of the streets in battle; and they will fight, for YHWH is with them, and they will put to shame the riders of horses.
6 · This verse (above)
7And those of Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as with wine; and their children will see it and rejoice; their heart will exult in YHWH.
