The word Jehovah is the German translation of the Hebrew name 'Yahweh' (YHWH). 'Jehovah' entered the English language in the nineteenth century, when German scholars were at the forefront of biblical research.

The Revised Version (or English Revised Version) of the King James Bible (KJV) was published in the 1880s and includes several instances of 'Jehovah' being substituted for the more correct 'Yahweh'. This includes Genesis 22:14, Exosus 6:3 and 17:15, Judges 6:24, Psalm 83:18, and Isaiah 12:2 and 26:4.
