Jehovah in the Bible

And Jethro said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh; who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.

Now I know that Jehovah is greater than all gods; for in the thing in which they acted haughtily he was above them.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to the people, and hallow them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their clothes;

and let them be ready for the third day; for on the third day Jehovah will come down before the eyes of all the people on mount Sinai.

And the whole of mount Sinai smoked, because Jehovah descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended as the smoke of a furnace; and the whole mountain shook greatly.

And Jehovah came down on mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain; and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Go down, testify to the people that they break not through to Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.

And the priests also, who come near to Jehovah, shall hallow themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.

And Moses said to Jehovah, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai; for thou hast testified to us, saying, Set bounds about the mountain, and hallow it.

And Jehovah said to him, Go, descend, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; but the priests and the people shall not break through to go up to Jehovah, lest he break forth on them.

I am Jehovah thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

He that sacrificeth to any god, save to Jehovah only, shall be devoted to destruction.

Three times in the year all thy males shall appear in the presence of the Lord Jehovah.

The first of the first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

When thou shalt take the sum of the children of Israel according to those of them that are numbered, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul to Jehovah on their being numbered, that there be no plague among them on their being numbered.
