bible de vidvaan mannde han ki ibrani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa takreeban 7,000 vaar paya janda hai jo chaar ibrani akhra (יהוה) vich likhya janda si. par bahut sare vidvaan mannde han ki eh naa mudhliya yoonani likhta vich nahi si. is karke ajj nave nem da anuvad karan vele ziadatar baibla vich yahovah da naa istemal nahi keeta janda. ziadatar anuvadak ibrani likhta vicho havalya da anuvad karan vele vi parmeshwar de naa di jagah “prabhu” istemal karde han.

pavittar likhta​—navi duniya anuvad vich is tarha nahi keeta gaya hai. is bible diya yoonani likhta vich yahovah da naa kull 237 vaar vartya gaya hai. is de anuvadka ne ihna do zaroori galla de aadhaar ’te eh faisla keeta si: (1) ajj hazaara yoonani hath-likhta uplabdh han, par oh asli nahi han, sago nakla han. ziadatar nakla mudhliya hath-likhta likhe jaan to ghatto-ghatt 200 saal baad banaiya gaiya san. (2) os same tak nakalnaveesa ne ja taa parmeshwar de naa de chaar ibrani akhra di jagah “prabhu” layi yoonani shabd “kiryos” likh ditta ja ohna ne ajehiya hath-likhta to nakla banaiya jinha vich pehla hi “kiryos” likhya gaya si.

navi duniya bible anuvad committee ne sare saboot dekh ke sitta kaddhya ki parmeshwar da naa (יהוה) mudhliya yoonani hath-likhta vich vartya gaya si. eh faisla thalle dasse gaye saboota de aadhaar ’te keeta gaya si:

• yisu atey os de rasoola de zamane vich vartiya jandiya ibrani likhta diya nakla vich parmeshwar da naa har jagah vartya gaya si. bhave beete same vich kujh lokaa nu is gall ’te shakk si, par qumran nerre labhiya ibrani likhta diya nakla to saabat ho chukka hai ki ohna nakla vich eh naa vartya gaya si. eh nakla pehli sadi eesvi vich banaiya gaiya san.

• yisu atey os de rasoola de dina vich ibrani likhta de yoonani anuvad vich vi parmeshwar da naa vartya gaya si. sadiya tak vidvaan sochde rahe ki ibrani likhta de yoonani septuagint anuvad vich parmeshwar da naa nahi vartya gaya si. fir yisu de zamane vich varte jande yoonani septuagint de kujh bahut hi purane tukrre 1940-1950 vich vidvaana de dhyaan vich liaande gaye. ohna tukrrya ’te ibrani akhra vich parmeshwar da naa likhya hoya si. is to pata laggda hai ki yisu de dina vich ibrani likhta de yoonani anuvad vich parmeshwar da naa si. par rasoola de same to lagbhag 300 saal baad yoonani septuagint diya mashhoor hath-likhta vich utpat to lai ke malaki tak diya kitaba vicho parmeshwar da naa kaddhya ja chukka si, jive ki codex vaticanus atey codex sinaiticus (ihna to pehla diya hath-likhta vich eh naa si). is layi eh hairani di gall nahi hai ki os same to baad diya nakla vich nave nem yani bible diya yoonani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa nahi paya janda.

  yisu ne saaf-saaf keha si: “mai apne pita de naa ’te aaya ha.” os ne is gall ’te vi zor ditta ki os ne sare kamm “apne pita de naa ’te” keete san

• masihi yoonani likhta to vi pata laggda hai ki yisu aksar yahovah da naa istemal karda si atey doosrya nu is bare dassda si. (yuhanna 17:​6, 11, 12, 26) yisu ne saaf-saaf keha si: “mai apne pita de naa ’te aaya ha.” os ne is gall ’te vi zor ditta ki os ne sare kamm “apne pita de naa ’te” keete san.​—yuhanna 5:43; 10:25.

• pavittar ibrani likhta to baad masihi yoonani likhta vi parmeshwar di prerna naal likhvaiya gaiya san, is layi ihna vicho parmeshwar da naa achanak gaaib ho jana sahi nahi laggda. pehli sadi de adh vich yakoob chele ne yarushlam de bazurga nu keha si: “shimon ne khol ke dassya ki kive parmeshwar ne pehli vaar gair-yahudi kauma val dhyaan ditta taaki oh ohna vicho apne naa layi lokaa nu chune.” (rasoola de kamm 15:14) je pehli sadi vich koi vi parmeshwar da naam jaanda na hunda ja na lainda hunda, taa yakoob ne eh gall kehni hi nahi si.

• masihi yoonani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa chhote roop vich istemal keeta gaya hai. ibrani shabd “halleluyah” nu prakash di kitab 19:​1, 3, 4, 6 vich “yah di jai-jai kaar karo” anuvad keeta gaya hai. “yah” yahovah de naa da chhota roop hai. yoonani likhta vich varte gaye bahut sare lokaa de naa parmeshwar de naa ’te aadharit han. asal vich, kayi kitaba vich samjhaya gaya hai ki yisu de naa da matlab hai “yahovah mukti hai.”

• yahudiyaa diya puraniya likhta to pata laggda hai ki yahudi masihiya ne apnia kitaba vich parmeshwar da naa istemal keeta si. yahudiyaa de zabaani niyama di kitab tosefta lagbhag 300 eesvi de ant tak poori keeti gayi si. sabat de din ’te sarriya jandiya masihi likhta bare eh kitab kehndi hai: “oh injeel de pracharka diya kitaba atey “minim” [shayad yahudi masihi] diya kitaba nu agg vich saarr dinde han. ohna nu jithe kite vi eh kitaba mildiya han, ohna nu eh kitaba atey ihna vich paaye jande parmeshwar de naa nu saarran di ijazat hai.” ise kitab vich yahudi dharam-guru yose galeeli da havala ditta gaya jo dooji sadi de shuru vich rehnda si. os ne keha si ki hafte de doosre dina ’te “ohna vich [yani masihi likhta vich] jithe vi parmeshwar da naa aaunda hai, utho naa nu katt ke sambh lya janda hai te fir baaki likhta nu saarr ditta janda hai.”

• bible de kujh vidvaan mannde han ki is tarha laggda hai ki yoonani likhta vich ditte ibrani likhta de havalya vich parmeshwar da naa paya janda si. di anchor bible dictionary kehndi hai: “is gall da kujh hadd tak taa saboot hai ki jado nava nem likhya gaya si, taa is vich ditte purane nem de kujh ja sare havalya vich parmeshwar da naa yahveh chaar ibrani akhra vich likhya gaya si.” vidvaan george howard kehnda hai: “pehli sadi de masihiya duaara varti jandi yoonani bible [septuagint] diya nakla vich parmeshwar da naa chaar ibrani akhra vich likhya hoya si, is layi eh sitta kaddhya ja sakda hai ki nave nem de likhariya ne os vicho aayata de havale dinde same parmeshwar da naa vi istemal keeta hona.”

• bible de manne-pramanne anuvadka ne yoonani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa vartya hai. ihna vicho kujh anuvadka ne navi duniya anuvad de tyaar keete jaan to bahut sama pehla is tarha keeta si. eh anuvadak atey ihna de anuvad han: herman heinfetter duaara a literal translation of the new testament . . . from the text of the vatican manuscript (1863); benjamin wilson duaara the emphatic diaglott (1864); george barker stevens duaara the epistles of paul in modern english (1898); w. g. rutherford duaara saint paul’s epistle to the romans (1900); london de bishop j. w. c. wand duaara the new testament letters (1946). is to ilava, 1919 vich ik spaini anuvad vich anuvadak pablo besson ne luka 2:15 atey yahudah 14 vich “jehova” naa vartya si atey apne anuvad vich bahut sariya aayata de takreeban 100 footnota vich keha ki uthe vi parmeshwar da naa vartya ja sakda hai. ihna anuvada to vi bahut chir pehla 16vi sadi to masihi yoonani likhta de ibrani anuvada vich bahut sariya aayata vich parmeshwar da naa vartya gaya si. german bhasha vich yoonani likhta de ghatto-ghatt 11 anuvada vich “yahovah” (ja “yahveh”) vartya gaya si. hor chaar anuvadka ne “prabhu” to baad bracketa vich yahovah paya. german vich 70 to ziada baibla vich parmeshwar da naa footnota ja tippniya vich vartya gaya hai.

• 100 to vi ziada bhashava diya baibla vich masihi yoonani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa maujood hai. bahut sariya afreeki, mool amreeki, eshiayi, yoorpi te shant mahasagar de tapuaa ’te boliya jandiya bhashava vich parmeshwar da naa bahut vaar istemal keeta gaya hai. ( saffe 2510-2511 dekho.) ihna baibla de anuvadka ne uppar ditte kaarna de aadhaar ’te parmeshwar da naa istemal karan da faisla keeta. ihna vicho kujh anuvad ziada purane nahi han, jive ki rotuman bible (1999) jis vich 48 aayata vich 51 vaar “jehova” istemal keeta gaya hai. indoneshia de batak (toba) version (1989) vich 110 vaar “jahova” vartya gaya hai.

vakayi, is gall da pakka aadhaar hai ki masihi yoonani likhta vich parmeshwar da naa yahovah paya jana chaheeda hai. is layi navi duniya anuvad de anuvadka ne ise tarha keeta. oh parmeshwar de naa da gehra aadar karde han atey mudhliya likhta vich payi jandi kise vi gall nu kaddan to darde han.​—prakash di kitab 22:​18, 19.
