The scholars responsible for the Septuagint translation of the Tanakh into Koine preserved this tradition by writing appearances of the Tetragrammaton as grc ὁ κύριος the supreme one; the Lord, Kyrios) and English translations of the Bible have similarly presented appearances of Adonai as "Lord", "the Lord", or "The Lord" while presenting appearances of the Tetragrammaton as "LORD" (as in the 1611 edition of the King James BibleSee, e.g., Genesis 2:4, hosted here at the library of the University of Pennsylvania.), "lord", "Lord", "the LORD", etc. However, by this rule, the sequence he אֲדֹנָי יהוה would be infelicitously translated as "the Lord the LORD". This is resolved by translating the divine name as 'God' instead of 'Lord', with the corresponding case convention.See, e.g., Genesis 15:8, hosted here at the library of the University of Pennsylvania.
