Lexicon :: Strong's H3069 - yᵊhōvâ

Abram said, “Lord [fn]GOD, what reward will You give me, since I am [leaving this world] childless, and he who will be the owner and heir of my house is this [servant] Eliezer from Damascus?”

Then Samson called to the LORD and said, “O Lord GOD, please remember me and please strengthen me just this one time, O God, and let me take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes.”

Then King David went in and sat [in prayer] before the LORD, and said, “Who am I, O Lord [fn]GOD, and what is my house (family), that You have brought me this far?

Then the king said to Abiathar the priest, “Go to Anathoth to your own fields, for you [fn]certainly deserve to die; but I will not put you to death this day, because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and you suffered everything that my father endured.”

God is to us a God of acts of salvation;

And to [fn]GOD the Lord belong escapes from death [setting us free].

Do not let those who wait [confidently] for You be [fn]ashamed through me, O Lord [fn]GOD of hosts;

Do not let those who seek You [as necessary for life itself] be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,

For You are my hope;

O Lord GOD, You are my trust and the source of my confidence from my youth.

I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD [and in His strength];

I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God;

I have made the Lord GOD my refuge and placed my trust in Him,

That I may tell of all Your works.

But You, O GOD, the Lord, show kindness to me, for Your name’s sake;

Because Your lovingkindness (faithfulness, compassion) is good, O rescue me;

“O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation,

You have covered my head in the day of battle.

For my eyes are toward You, O GOD, the Lord;

In You I take refuge; do not pour out my life nor leave me defenseless.

“What do you mean by crushing My people

And grinding the face of the poor?”

Declares the Lord GOD of hosts.

For the Lord, the GOD of hosts, will execute a complete destruction, one that is decreed, in the midst of all the land.

For the Lord GOD of hosts has a day of panic and of tumult, of trampling, of confusion

In the Valley of Vision,

A [day of] breaking down walls

And a crying [for help] to the mountain.

Therefore in that day the Lord GOD of hosts called you to weeping, to mourning,

To shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth [in humiliation].

But the LORD of hosts revealed Himself in my ears,

“This sin absolutely will not be forgiven you

Until you die,” says the Lord GOD of hosts.

He will swallow up death [and abolish it] for all time.

And the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces,

And He will take away the disgrace of His people from all the earth;

For the LORD has spoken.

Therefore the Lord GOD says this,

“Listen carefully, I am laying in Zion a Stone, a tested Stone,

A precious Cornerstone for the [secure] foundation, firmly placed.

He who believes [who trusts in, relies on, and adheres to that Stone] will not [fn]be disturbed or give way [in sudden panic].

Now do not carry on as scoffers,

Or the bands which bind you will be made stronger;

For I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts [a decree]

Of decisive destruction on all the earth.

For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel has said this,

“In returning [to Me] and rest you shall be saved,

In quietness and confident trust is your strength.”

But you were not willing,

Listen carefully, the Lord GOD will come with might,

And His arm will rule for Him.

Most certainly His reward is with Him,

And His restitution accompanies Him.

“Come near to Me, listen to this:

From the beginning I have not spoken in secret,

From the time that it happened, I was there.

And now the Lord GOD has sent Me, and His [Holy] Spirit.”

This is what the Lord GOD says,

“Listen carefully, I will lift up My hand to the [Gentile] nations

And set up My banner to the peoples;

And they will bring your sons in the fold of their garments,

And your daughters will be carried on their shoulders.

The Lord GOD has given Me [His [fn]Servant] the tongue of disciples [as One who is taught],

That I may know how to sustain the weary with a word.

He awakens Me morning by morning,

He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple [as One who is taught].

For the Lord GOD helps Me,

Therefore, I have not been ashamed or humiliated.

Therefore, I have made My face like flint,

And I know that I shall not be put to shame.

In fact, the Lord GOD helps Me;

Who is he who condemns Me [as guilty]?

Indeed, they will all wear out like a garment;

The moth will eat them.

The Lord GOD, who gathers the dispersed of Israel, declares:

“I will gather yet others to them (Israel), to those [already] gathered.”

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me,

Because the LORD has anointed and commissioned me

To bring good news to the humble and afflicted;

He has sent me to bind up [the wounds of] the brokenhearted,

To proclaim release [from confinement and condemnation] to the [physical and spiritual] captives

And freedom to prisoners,

For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,

And as a garden causes what is sown in it to spring up,

So the Lord GOD will [most certainly] cause righteousness and justice and praise

To spring up before all the nations [through the power of His word].

Therefore, the Lord GOD says this,

“Listen carefully, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry;

Indeed, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty;

Indeed, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.

“And you will leave your name behind to My chosen ones [who will use it] as a curse,

And the Lord GOD will put you to death,

But He will call His servants by another name [a much greater name, just as the name Israel was greater than the name Jacob].

Then I said, “Ah, Lord GOD!

Behold, I do not know how to speak,

For I am [only] a young man.”

“Your own wickedness will discipline you,

And your desertion of the faith will punish you.

Know therefore that it is an evil and bitter thing

For you to abandon (reject) the LORD your God,

And for you to be indifferent to Me and dismiss the [reverent] fear of Me,” says the Lord GOD of hosts.
