    The disciples, in their inspired New Testament writings, used Lb|A-Cb|a (kurios) to translate YHWH, AND applied that name to Jesus Christ:

    1. Joel 2:32 raA Romans 10:13

    rCo Joel 2:32 (LXX): rCLEveryone who calls on the name of the LORD
    (*Kurios*) will be saved.rCY

    rCo Romans 10:13: rCLEveryone who calls on the name of the LORD
    (*Kurios*) will be saved.rCY

    Paul applies this to Jesus in Romans 10:9, identifying Him as the
    *Kurios* on whom we call for salvation.

    2. Isaiah 45:23 raA Philippians 2:10rCo11

    rCo Isaiah 45:23 (LXX): rCLTo Me every knee shall bow, every tongue
    shall confess to God.rCY

    rCo Philippians 2:10rCo11: rCLAt the name of Jesus every knee should
    bow\... and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD
    (*Kurios*).rCY

    Paul applies this passage about YHWH to Jesus, calling Him *Kurios*.

    3. Deuteronomy 6:4 raA 1 Corinthians 8:6

    rCo Deuteronomy 6:4 (LXX): rCLThe LORD (*Kurios*) our God, the LORD
    (*Kurios*) is one.rCY

    rCo 1 Corinthians 8:6: rCLYet for us there is one God, the Father...
    and one LORD (*Kurios*), Jesus Christ.rCY

    Paul affirms monotheism and includes Jesus as *Kurios* within the divine identity.

    4. Psalm 34:8 raA 1 Peter 2:3

    rCo Psalm 34:8 (LXX): rCLTaste and see that the LORD (*Kurios*) is
    good.rCY

    rCo 1 Peter 2:3: rCLIf indeed you have tasted that the LORD
    (*Kurios*) is good.rCY

    Peter quotes the psalm about YHWH and applies it to Jesus as *Kurios*.

    5. Isaiah 8:13rCo14 raA 1 Peter 3:15; Romans 9:33

    rCo Isaiah 8:13: rCLBut the LORD (*Kurios*) of hosts, Him you shall
    honor as holy...rCY

    rCo 1 Peter 3:15: rCLHonor Christ the LORD (*Kurios*) as holy in your
    hearts.rCY

    rCo Isaiah 8:14: rCLAnd He will become a sanctuary and a stone of
    stumbling...rCY

    Romans 9:33 and 1 Peter 2:8 apply this stumbling stone to Christ,
    identifying Him as the *Kurios*.

    6. Psalm 102:25rCo27 raA Hebrews 1:10rCo12

    rCo Psalm 102:25 (LXX): rCLYou, LORD (*Kurios*), laid the foundation
    of the earth in the beginning.rCY

    rCo Hebrews 1:10: rCLYou, LORD (*Kurios*), laid the foundation of the
    earth in the beginning.rCY

    The writer explicitly says this was spoken rCLof the Son,rCY identifying
    Jesus as *Kurios*.

    7. Deuteronomy 10:17 raA Revelation 19:16

    rCo Deuteronomy 10:17 (LXX): rCLFor the LORD (*Kurios*) your God is
    God of gods and LORD (*Kurios*) of lords.rCY

    rCo Revelation 19:16: rCLKing of kings and LORD (*Kurios*) of lords.rCY

    The title for YHWH is applied to Jesus, who bears the name *Kurios* of all.

    The New Testament authors consistently affirm *Kurios* as the proper translation of YHWH and deliberately apply passages about the *Kurios*
    of the Old Testament to Jesus Christ.

    The crucifixion of Christ completely satisfied the debt of our sins
    toward God (Colossians 2:14), which God verified by bringing Him back to
    life (Romans 1:4). As a result, God is proven just when He forgives
    believers (Romans 3:26) and delivers them from the approaching wrath (1 Thessalonians 1:10). Eternal salvation is a free gift appropriated by
    faith (Romans 6:23). If you believe in Him, call on the Lord for your deliverance (Romans 10:9-13):
