H3068 Jehovah
<p>Only YHWH and Adonai appear in the original texts. The Masoretes added vowels from Adonai to YHWH to form a word to substitute Adonai for YHWH, "the ineffable name." European students of Hebrew took this literally, which yielded Latin JeHoVa (first attested in writings of Galatinus, confessor to Leo X, 1516).</p>
<p>In 1530 Tyndale's translation used Jehovah four places in place of YHWH. </p>
<p>The word appeared in the KJV as a name for God.</p>
<p>Quote from Wiktionary.org website: In English, the name is first attested in 1530, in Tyndale's Bible: "I appeared vnto Abraham Isaac and Iacob an allmightie God: but in my name Iehouah was I not knowne vnto them." (Exodus 6:3) Tyndale used Iehouah instead of Wycliffe's Adonay. The KJV also has JEHOVAH in this verse specifically, while it uses LORD otherwise. Young's Literal Translation (1898) has Jehovah. The New King James Version (1982) has LORD.</p>
