Anyone with a Concordance, can you tell me what the Hebrew "hovah" means in English?

    Since you asked for the definition from a concordance, Strong's define the word as "disaster or ruin". Can also refer to mischief

    God’s name. In English it is Jehovah. In Spanish it is pronounced Hay–oh–vahʹ; in Italian, Jeh–ohʹvah; in German, Yeh–hoʹvah. Which is correct?

    All are usable. What is wrong is to suppress the name of God by failing or refusing to use it.

    There is no such Hebrew word. The primitive root from which the Tetragrammaton was built was actually the verb "hayah"(הָיָה) which means "to be, to become, to happen."

    It must mean "savior". And "Je" means "The". So "Je hovah" means "The Savior" which is Jesus.
