Names of God Bible
2 They said to him, “Please listen to our request, and pray to Yahweh your Elohim for all of us who are left here. As you can see, there are only a few of us left. 3 Let Yahweh your Elohim tell us where we should go and what we should do.”

7 After ten days Yahweh spoke his word to Jeremiah.
