However, because [[Jew]]s generally were forbidden by the [[Ten Commandments|Third Commandment]] to pronounce the sacred name, the vowels of ''Adonai'' (literally 'my lords') were normally inserted between its consonants, resulting in the name '[[Jehovah]]'. Reflecting the same taboo, the earlier English translations of the [[Bible]] replaced the name with the phrase 'the LORD'. Because [[Jesus]]' followers routinely called him ''adon'' ('boss', 'lord', which translated into the [[gospel]]s' [[Greek]] as ''kurios''), the two titles became confused in English, to the point where it became unclear whether the phrase 'the LORD' was referring to Jesus or to Yahweh.
