Exodus 23:17

17 At ^{▼▼ Adverbial accusative of time: “three times” becomes “at three times.”} three times in the year all your males will appear before the Lord God. ^{▼▼ Here the divine Name reads in Hebrew הָאָדֹן יְהוָה (ha’adon y^ehvah), which if rendered according to the traditional scheme of “Lord” for “Yahweh” would result in “Lord Lord.” A number of English versions therefore render this phrase “Lord God,” and that convention has been followed here.}
