Shouldn't it be "The Lord yoinketh and the Lord yeeteth away"? Yoinking is grabbing/pulling towards and yeeting is throwing away from oneself?

Depends on the angle you look at it from. The lord could be yeeting something to you and then yoinking something to you.

Any young people here to tell me if "yeet" is out? Do people still use this? I don't see it online anymore.

Thank you for your answer and assisting the elderly with this query.

Yeet has become part of the lexicon I feel.

I've heard yoink since the 80s, but I happily accept yeet as its opposite.
