Does your bible have the name Jehovah at Psalm83:18?

A lady knocked at the door. She said God's name is Jehovah. Since I don't have a bible, I went to get my grandma's. It says Jehovah at psalms83:18. My father, mother and grandma did not know as well. We were taught that Jesus is God. But now, since Jesus as well prayed, he was praying to Jehovah. what does your bible say?

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE NO ATHEISTS.

    Yes.

    Many of the Bible's I use and or have access to have God almighty's personal name (as opposed to His TITLE of "LORD" / "Lord") at Psalm 83:18 and other places, for example:

    # 1)

    Psalms 83:18 (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures):

    "That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah,

    You alone are the Most High over all the earth."

    http://watchtower.org/e/bible/ps/chapter_083.htm

    # 2)

    Psalm 83:18 (King James Version of 1611):

    "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 3)

    Psalm 83:18 (American Standard Version):

    "That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, Art the Most High over all the earth."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 4)

    Psalm 83:18 (Young's Literal Translation):

    "And they know that Thou -- (Thy name [is] Jehovah -- by Thyself,) [Art] the Most High over all the earth!"

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 5)

    Psalm 83:18 (Darby Translation):

    "That they may know that thou alone, whose name is Jehovah, art the Most High over all the earth."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 6)

    Psalm 83:18 (Holman Christian Standard Bible):

    "May they know that You alone—

    whose name is Yahweh—

    are the Most High over all the earth."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    ** "Yahweh" is God's personal name as commonly pronounced in HEBREW and "Jehovah" is God's personal name as commonly pronounced in ENGLISH. Just like Jehovah God Son's (Jesus Christ) name is pronounced "Yeshua" in HEBREW and is pronounced "Jesus" in ENGLISH **

    Yeppers, Psalm 83:18 is one of the MANY scriptures which shows that the MOST HIGH almighty God (JEHOVAH) is a distinct individual Being from His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. JEHOVAH God is the Sovereign LORD / Lord, while Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory and honor of his Father, JEHOVAH God.

    Psalm 110:1 shows this Truth CRYSTAL CLEARLY... and I quote:

    # 1)

    Psalm 110:1 (Amplified Bible):

    "THE LORD (God) says to my Lord (the Messiah), Sit at My right hand, until I make Your adversaries Your footstool."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 2)

    Psalms 83:18 (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures):

    "The utterance of Jehovah to my Lord is:

    “Sit at my right hand

    Until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.” "

    http://watchtower.org/e/bible/ps/chapter_110.htm

    # 3)

    Psalm 110:1 (King James Version):

    "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    # 4)

    Psalm 110:1 (American Standard Version):

    "Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool."

    http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%...

    Source(s): # 5) Psalm 110:1 (Young's Literal Translation): "A Psalm of David. The affirmation of Jehovah to my Lord: `Sit at My right hand, Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.' " http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%... Undeniable conclusion, contrary to popular but HIGHLY ERRONEOUS religious belief, Jesus Christ IS NOT JEHOVAH God the almighty, the Sovereign Lord, but rather, the Lord Jesus Christ is JEHOVAH God's Son as he himself crystal clearly said and all the scriptures in the Bible attest to (http://bit.ly/lpoFsI / http://bit.ly/bAbKpn ).

    The New English Bible: The name Jehovah appears at Exodus 3:15; 6:3. See also Genesis 22:14; Exodus 17:15; Judges 6:24; Ezekiel 48:35. (But if this and other translations use “Jehovah” in several places, why not be consistent in using it at every place where the Tetragrammaton appears in the Hebrew text?)

    Revised Standard Version: A footnote on Exodus 3:15 says: “The word LORD when spelled with capital letters, stands for the divine name, YHWH.”

    Today’s English Version: A footnote on Exodus 6:3 states: “THE LORD: . . . Where the Hebrew text has Yahweh, traditionally transliterated as Jehovah, this translation employs LORD with capital letters, following a usage which is widespread in English versions.”

    King James Version: The name Jehovah is found at Exodus 6:3; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 12:2; 26:4. See also Genesis 22:14; Exodus 17:15; Judges 6:24.

    American Standard Version: The name Jehovah is used consistently in the Hebrew Scriptures in this translation, beginning with Genesis 2:4.

    Douay Version: A footnote on Exodus 6:3 says: “My name Adonai. The name, which is in the Hebrew text, is that most proper name of God, which signifieth his eternal, self-existing being, (Exod. 3, 14,) which the Jews out of reverence never pronounce; but, instead of it, whenever it occurs in the Bible, they read Adonai, which signifies the Lord; and, therefore, they put the points or vowels, which belong to the name Adonai, to the four letters of that other ineffable name, Jod, He, Vau, He. Hence some moderns have framed the name of Jehovah, unknown to all the ancients, whether Jews or Christians; for the true pronunciation of the name, which is in the Hebrew text, by long disuse is now quite lost.” (It is interesting that The Catholic Encyclopedia [1913, Vol. VIII, p. 329] states: “Jehovah, the proper name of God in the Old Testament; hence the Jews called it the name by excellence, the great name, the only name.”)

    The Holy Bible translated by Ronald A. Knox: The name Yahweh is found in footnotes at Exodus 3:14 and 6:3.

    The New American Bible: A footnote on Exodus 3:14 favors the form “Yahweh,” but the name does not appear in the main text of the translation. In the Saint Joseph Edition, see also the appendix Bible Dictionary under “Lord” and “Yahweh.”

    The Jerusalem Bible: The Tetragrammaton is translated Yahweh, starting with its first occurrence, at Genesis 2:4.

    New World Translation: The name Jehovah is used in both the Hebrew and the Christian Greek Scriptures in this translation, appearing 7,210 times.

    An American Translation: At Exodus 3:15 and 6:3 the name Yahweh is used, followed by “the LORD” in brackets.

    The Bible in Living English, S. T. Byington: The name Jehovah is used throughout the Hebrew Scriptures.

    The ‘Holy Scriptures’ translated by J. N. Darby: The name Jehovah appears throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, also in many footnotes on Christian Greek Scripture texts, beginning with Matthew 1:20.

    The Emphatic Diaglott, Benjamin Wilson: The name Jehovah is found at Matthew 21:9 and in 17 other places in this translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures.

    The Holy Scriptures According to the Masoretic Text—A New Translation, Jewish Publication Society of America, Max Margolis editor-in-chief: At Exodus 6:3 the Hebrew Tetragrammaton appears in the English text.

    The Holy Bible translated by Robert Young: The name Jehovah is found throughout the Hebrew Scriptures in this literal translation.

    Yes. I use the New World Translation of the bible and it has God's name, Jehovah at Psalm 83:18.

    Other translations substitute God's name with LORD in the scripture at Psalm 83:18. Some of these translations though use God's name in Exodus 6:3 (Yahweh, which is the hebrew pronunciation of God's name).

    Exodus 6:3

    " I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty [El-Shaddai], but by My [a]name the Lord [Yahweh--the redemptive name of God] I did not make Myself known to them [in acts and great miracles]." - Amplified Bible

    Exodus 6:3

    "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty’[a]—but I did not reveal my name, Yahweh, to them. " - New Living Translation

    Exodus 6:3

    "I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Almighty, but I did not make My name Yahweh known to them." - Holman Christian Standard Bible

  • Yes, I have several Bibles with the name Jehovah at Psalms 83:18: King James Version; American Standard Version; Young's Literal Translation of the Holy Bible; The Bible in Living English; The Living Bible; and the New World Translation.

    Christians pray to the one Whom Jesus Christ prayed to, and to Whom Christ taught us to pray, "Our Father who are in heaven." (Matthew 6:9, 10)

    "Our Father in heaven" is Jehovah, not Jesus.

    "But now, O Jehovah, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand." -- Isaiah 64:8, American Standard Version

    "And now, O Jehovah, thou art our Father, We are the clay, and Thou our Framer, And the work of Thy hand -- all of us." -- Isaiah 64:8, Young's Literal Translation of the Holy Bible

  • Yes, Gods name is Jehovah, and Jesus is his son.

    If you'd like to read up a bit on why it's important we know Gods name, here is a nice article for you.
