Gene, what text are you quoting? Without a context,
as Peter
said, your request for a translation seems to involve
a hidden
agenda. The first is a QATAL from HYH, the second a
Qal participle
from HWH, and the third a YIQTOL from HYH. A
participle would
normally involve another element giving the subject,
like a pronoun.

I am not specifically quoting any text, as I believe
that hayah howeh yihyeh is a rabbinic interpretation
based on Exodus 3:14. There is no hidden agenda
Harold, I am just trying to examine every available
aspect of the YHWH questioning process in an attempt
to have a clearer understanding of the finer points
presented by the wide variety of people that post on
this list.
