Genesis 17:7

וַ הֲקִמֹתִי אֶת בְּרִיתִי בֵּינִי וּ בֵינֶךָ וּ בֵין זַרְעֲךָ אַחֲרֶיךָ לְ דֹרֹתָם לִ בְרִית עֹולָם לִ הְיֹות לְךָ לֵ אלֹהִים וּ לְ זַרְעֲךָ אַחֲרֶיךָ
`And I have caused to stand up my cut-out-one between me and between you, and between your seed of your back, to their generations, to a cut-out-one of the future, to become to-yourself, to elohim, and to your seed of your back.617

Hebrew לִהְיֹ֤ות לְךָ֙ לֵֽאלֹהִ֔ים וּֽלְזַרְעֲךָ֖, to be to you to elohim and to your seed. Elohim does not always mean Yahweh.
