His Name is exalted - call upon His Name!

12 1 And in those days
you will say, I praise You, YaHUaH1 because You were angry with me,
but Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
2 Behold, God is my Salvation [Hebr.: יְשׁוּעָתִי - my Jₑshu‘ah], I will trust and not fear; for YaH
YaHUaH is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation [Hebr.: לִישׁוּעָה - unto Yₑshu‘ah].
3 And you shall draw water with joy from the springs
of Salvation [Hebr.: הַיְשׁוּעָה - ha Yₑshu‘ah];
4 And you will say in those days: Praise YaHUaH, call on His name, declare His deeds among the
nations; mention that His name is exalted.
5 Sing with music to YaHUaH, for He has done
great things; let this be known in all the earth.
6 Sing and shout for joy, inhabitants of Tsion,
for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.
Yesha‘-Yahu 12
This morning my wife read this passage from Yesha-Yahu (Isaiah), and
suddenly something stood out to me. It is often said that we should not
pronounce God's glorious Name YaHUaH out loud because God's Name is so
exalted, so holy. Here God's Own Word says something completely different:
His glorious Name is exalted, and (so) we are to call upon and explicitly praise
His glorious Name, and proclaim His exalted Name and His great and majestic
deeds throughout the world! I can't but accede completely, and say:
Hallelu YaHUaH !
