The worlds 'most accurate English translation', (independently assessed by associate professor Jason BeDhun) has undergone its latest revision. Begun sometime in 2005 this refining process took eight years and a team of volunteer researchers to accomplish and we thank them for their hard work! We are reminded of the words of the psalmist, that Gods word is like refined Gold and its with pleasure and excitement that we announce this latest development. For those interested you can pick up a free copy at your local Kingdom Hall of Jehovahs witnesses or from anyone of Jehovahs witnesses engaged in the public ministry. May the peace of our God be with you.

Refined gold? What's the difference between 'refining' and 'adulterating'? And why would we need a more accurate English translation in the first place? Oh, wait, it's because of that whole Tower of Babel thing isn't it?

I'm curious. Do you know what word is used to denote God in the original text? Maybe this would help.

Prove or disprove your assertion that "Jehova" is not a correct translation of the name for God.

I am not a Jehova's Witness btw, not even religious. I'm mainly just curious and have read a bit of the bible.

No he cannot prove or disprove anything, he's simply a Witness hater and a troll, best not to feed him.

Are these "names" in context or are most of them words that refer to god like "him," "her" or "they?"
