The "God" you mention, for example in Exodus 20:1 which reads "And God spoke all these words:"
In Hebrew the word for that God is אֱלֹהִ֔ים and is transliterated as Elohim.
In verse 2 the writing style change a little bit. It reads
“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery."
In this verse, יְהוָ֣ה is mentioned that gets transliterated as Yahweh and Translated as Lord.
The Hebrew word אֱלֹהֶ֑֔יךָ gets transliterated as Eloheka which gets translated as "your God".
The more you look at these scriptures in Hebrew, the more gets revealed.
