As for the audio Bible, currently it is still the King James Version audio Bible. It will be replaced [with the audio Bible which is using the Hebrew names] someday when it is fully available)

Peter Heals a Lame Beggar
3 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour (3:00 p.m.).
2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried (who had been unable to walk from birth was being carried along), whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms (for donations) of them that entered into the temple;
3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee (you): In the name of Yahusha ha‘Mashiach of Nazareth rise up and walk.
7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising Elohim / Aluahym.
9 And all the people saw him walking and praising Elohim / Aluahym:
10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.
Peter Preaches in the Temple
11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.
12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye (You) men of Israel, why marvel ye (why are you amazed) at this? or why look ye (you) so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?
13 The Elohim / Aluahym of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the Elohim / Aluahym of our fathers, hath (has) glorified his Son Yahusha (His Son Yahusha); whom ye (you) delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 But ye (you) denied the Qodesh One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom Elohim / Aluahym hath (has) raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
16 And his (His) name through faith in his (His) name hath (has) made this man strong, whom ye (you) see and know: yea (yes), the faith which is by him hath given him (and the faith which comes through Him has given him) this perfect soundness (health) in the presence of you all.
17 And now, brethren (brothers), I wot (know) that through ignorance ye (you) did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those things, which Elohim / Aluahym before had shewed (showed) by the mouth of all his prophets, that Mashiach (the Messiah) should suffer, he hath (He has) so fulfilled (brought into completion).
19 Repent ye (you) therefore, and be converted (a believer in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah the Most High Almighty One and Only Creator), that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
(NOTE: repent (verb) = to have a change of mind regarding sins > with sincere regret or remorse that leads to turning away from sin, > stop repeating the same sin, > turning towards the Most High Creator 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, > asking forgiveness from the 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah > & bearing the fruit / evidence in keeping of repentance (Matthew 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance). In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word for repent is “נָחַם” (nacham). It means to be sorry, to console oneself, or to change one’s mind. In the New Testament, the Greek word for repent is “μετανοέω” (metanoeō). It means to change one’s mind or purpose, often with the implication of turning away from sin and turning towards 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah)
20 And he shall send Yahusha ha‘Mashiach, which before was preached unto you:
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution (restoration) of all things, which Elohim / Aluahym hath (has) spoken by the mouth of all his (His) holy prophets since the world began.
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah your Elohim / Aluahym raise up unto you of your brethren (brothers), like unto me; him shall ye (you) hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto (He tells) you.
23 And it shall come to pass (And it will be), that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 Yea (Yes), and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 Ye (You) are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant (agreement) which Elohim / Aluahym made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed (your descendants) shall all the kindreds (relatives) of the earth be blessed.
26 Unto you first Elohim / Aluahym, having raised up his Son Yahusha, sent him (Him) to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities (your wicked ways).

The Builders Complete the Wall (continuation)
7 Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
2 That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared Elohim / Aluahym above many.
3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be over against his house.
Nehemiah Registers the Temple
4 Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded (built).
5 And my Elohim / Aluahym put into mine (my) heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found written therein,
6 These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city;

60 All the Nethinims, and the children of Solomon’s servants, were three hundred ninety and two.

64 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.
65 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and Thummim.
66 The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore,
67 Beside their manservants and their maidservants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two hundred forty and five singing men and singing women.
68 Their horses, seven hundred thirty and six: their mules, two hundred forty and five:
69 Their camels, four hundred thirty and five: six thousand seven hundred and twenty asses.
70 And some of the chief of the fathers gave unto the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasure a thousand drams of gold, fifty basons, five hundred and thirty priests’ garments.
71 And some of the chief of the fathers gave to the treasure of the work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pound of silver.
72 And that which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand pound of silver, and threescore and seven priests’ garments.
73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and some of the people, and the Nethinims, and all Israel, dwelt in their cities; and when the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their cities.

Exra Reads the Law
8 And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that was before the water gate; and they spake unto (spoke to) Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah had commanded to Israel.
2 And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.
3 And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law.
4 And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
5 And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:
6 And Ezra blessed 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, the great Elohim / Aluahym. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah with their faces to the ground.
7 Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place.
8 So they read in the book in the law of Elohim / Aluahym distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
9 And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah your Elohim / Aluahym; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.
10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Adonai: neither be ye (you) sorry; for the joy of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah is your strength.
11 So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, Hold your peace, for the day is holy; neither be ye (you) grieved.
12 And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them.
The Feast of Booths (Tabernacles)
13 And on the second day were gathered together the chief of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even to understand the words of the law.
14 And they found written in the law which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah had commanded by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month:
15 And that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
16 So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house (House) of Elohim / Aluahym, and in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
17 And all the congregation of them that were come again out of the captivity made booths, and sat under the booths: for since the days of Jeshua the son of Nun unto that day had not the children of Israel done so. And there was very great gladness.
18 Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in the book of the law of Elohim / Aluahym. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.

The People Confess Their Sins
9 Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth upon them.
2 And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.
3 And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah their Elohim / Aluahym one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah their Elohim / Aluahym.
4 Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cried with a loud voice unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah their Elohim / Aluahym.
5 Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and baruk 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah your Elohim / Aluahym for ever and ever: and blessed be thy (Your) glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
6 Thou (You), even thou (You), art (are) Adonai alone; thou hast (You have) made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest (You preserve) them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee (worship You).
7 Thou art (You are) 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah the Elohim / Aluahym, who didst (did) choose Abram, and broughtest (brought) him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest (gave) him the name of Abraham;
8 And foundest (found) his heart faithful before thee (you), and madest (made) a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed (descendants), and hast (has) performed thy (Your) words; for thou art (You are) righteous:
9 And didst (did) see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest (heard) their cry by the Red sea;
10 And shewedst (showed) signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest (You knew) that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou (did You) get thee (You) a name, as it is this day.
11 And thou didst (You did) divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou threwest (You threw) into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters.
12 Moreover thou leddest (You led) them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go.
13 Thou camest (You came) down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest (spoke) with them from heaven, and gavest (gave) them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
14 And madest (made) known unto them thy (Your) holy sabbath, and commandedst (commanded) them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy (Your) servant:
15 And gavest (gave) them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest (brought) forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst (promised) them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst (You had) sworn to give them.
16 But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened (listened) not to thy (Your) commandments,
(NOTE: hardened their necks (phrase) = they became stubborn or refused to submit)
17 And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy (Your) wonders that thou didst (You did) among them; but hardened their necks (they became stubborn), and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art (You are) an Elohim / Aluahym ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest (forsook) them not.
18 Yea (Yes), when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is thy (your) Elohim / Aluahym that brought thee (you) up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations (and committed great blasphemies);
19 Yet thou (You) in thy manifold mercies forsookest (forsook) them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew (show) them light, and the way wherein they should go.
20 Thou gavest (You gave) also thy (Your) good spirit to instruct them, and withheldest (withheld) not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest (gave) them water for their thirst.
21 Yea (Yes), forty years didst thou (did You) sustain them in the wilderness, so that they lacked nothing; their clothes waxed (grew) not old, and their feet swelled not.
22 Moreover thou gavest (You gave) them kingdoms and nations, and didst (did) divide them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
23 Their children also multipliedst (multiplied) thou (You) as the stars of heaven, and broughtest (brought) them into the land, concerning which thou hadst (You had) promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it.
24 So the children went in and possessed the land, and thou subduedst (You subdued) before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gavest (gave) them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.
25 And they took strong cities, and a fat land, and possessed houses full of all goods, wells digged, vineyards, and oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.
26 Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee (You), and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy (killed your) prophets which testified against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations (committed great blasphemies).
27 Therefore thou deliveredst (You delivered) them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed (oppressed) them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee (You), thou heardest (heard) them from heaven; and according to thy manifold (Your abundant) mercies thou gavest (You gave) them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.
28 But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee (You): therefore leftest thou (You left) them in the land of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest (You heard) them from heaven; and many times didst thou (did You) deliver them according to thy (Your) mercies;
29 And testifiedst (testified) against them, that thou mightest (You might) bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy (and did not pay attention to Your) commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.
30 Yet many years didst thou (did You) forbear them, and testifiedst (testified) against them by thy spirit in thy prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou (gave You) them into the hand of the people of the lands.
31 Nevertheless for thy (Your) great mercies’ sake thou didst (You did) not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for thou art (You are) a gracious and merciful Elohim / Aluahym.
32 Now therefore, our Elohim / Aluahym, the great, the mighty, and the terrible (awesome) Elohim / Aluahym, who keepest (keeps) covenant and mercy, let not all the trouble seem little before thee (You), that hath (has) come upon us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, since the time of the kings of Assyria unto this day.
33 Howbeit thou art (However, You are) just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast (You have) done right, but we have done wickedly:
34 Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor hearkened unto thy (paid attention to Your) commandments and thy (Your) testimonies, wherewith thou didst (You did) testify against them.
35 For they have not served thee (You) in their kingdom, and in thy (Your) great goodness that thou gavest (You gave) them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest (You gave) before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.
36 Behold (Look), we are servants this day, and for the land that thou gavest (You gave) unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold (see), we are servants in it:
37 And it yieldeth much increase (And its abundant produce) unto the kings whom thou hast (You have) set over us because of our sins: also they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.
The People Agree to Obey
38 And because of all this we make a sure covenant (agreement), and write it; and our princes, Levites, and priests, seal unto it.

into Greek as Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς)

⬇ transliterated
into Greek as Christos (Χριστός)

Yah יה (H3050) is made of י (y = Yad) & הּ (ah = Hay) which means YAH (יה = The Creator),
u ו (u = Uau) = add
