I prefur JHVH because it is consistent with EVERY OTHER NAME IN THE BIBLE but
I guess that counts for nothing with you. So please- 1) which vowels, and 2) why the Y and W instead of J and V?....Mat
If your just going to Make Shit Up..
Why not replace the "Y" with a Carrot and the "W" with a Rubics Cube ?..

What are you talking about Jay88?
The tetragram is the only word translated wrongly as either LORD or a compleatly different method of transliteration is applied to it (to get Yahweh) than is used for all the other names in the bible. If the same method of transliteration is applied to the tetragram as is used on every other name it would be translated as Jehovah- which it is! And I don't have a problem with that, but most other people do it seems.

Why is it translated wrongly?

Because the tetragram does not mean "lord". It is a proper name and should thus be transliterated with the same method that every other proper name is transliterated in the bible.

Tetragrammaton is Greek for "a four letter word".
Unfortunately, Today many seem to use the name Jesus as a "four letter word" to curse.
