fear of Yahweh is the beginning of foolishness and stupidity. an African should not fear Jewish mythical gods

In Isaiah, Jehovah prophesied Babylon would become ruin 200 years before it did, said the name of the Persian conqueror, and how he would overtake it.
That is not the only prophesy; deep study into the Bible reveals the prophesies fulfillments up to this day.

Every human no matter the color of skin can have godly fear of Jehovah (Yahweh) who is only one God, the creator of the heavens and earth and of those on it. "To us there is but one God, the Father [Jehovah]"--1 Corinthians 8:6.
He teaches us to benefit from life, therefore, it is the smartest thing to pay attention to his advice, suggestions and laws.
"“I, Jehovah, am your God, The One teaching you to benefit yourself, The One guiding you in the way you should walk."- Isaiah 48:17
"“See, I do put before you today life and good, and death and bad. If you listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God that I am commanding you today, by loving Jehovah your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his judicial decisions, then you will live ... and Jehovah your God will bless you.
I take the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you today that I have put life and death before you, the blessing and the curse; and you must choose life so that you may live, you and your descendants, by loving Jehovah your God, by listening to his voice, and by sticking to him, for he is your life and by him you will endure a long time.
- Deuteronomy
Some Egyptians, some Babylonians, and just as the Biblical history of Ruth and foreigners to the Jews as the Greeks were, thousands of people of different races are become worshipers of Jehovah, who is the God of mankind and the Universe.
In reply to Satan the Devil, "Jesus said to him: “It is written, ‘It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service."- Luke 4:8 -- There was no Jewish gods to be worshiped.
Jehovah has promised faithful Christians of all races to enter through the Armageddon and have the whole earth and share it with the resurrected ones as these who died while sharing the hope had the promise guaranteed even now.

Where was Jesus to protect them?

Something similar was said in the Bible of Jesus Christ.
Luke 23:35, The rulers were sneering and saying: “Others he saved; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God.
Luke 23:39, Then one of the criminals hanging there began to speak abusively to him, saying: “You are the Christ, are you not? Save yourself and us too!”

Lesson: There will always be people criticizing.

Everybody knows the biblical story of David Killing Goliath.

In the Jehovah Witness Bible they say that someone else killed Goliath.

This proves that the Jehovah witness bible is not of God,
and means that all Jehovah Witnesses are hell bound

The Hebrew literal translation of the Hebrew Interlinear Bible of the Westminster Leningrad Codex with vowels of 2 Samuel 21:19 says,

"And·she-is-becoming further the·battle in·Gob with Philistines and·he-is-smiting Elhanan son-of Jaare~Oregim Beth~the-Lehemite » Goliath the·Gittite and·wood-of spear-of·him as·cylinder-of ones-weaving".

The New World Translation translated it very literally in this aspect of wording.
So the way to understand the verse meaning is as they suggest using the Bible itself to explain its verses' meaning.
The reference to which the word Goliath corresponds to explains to whom it was referring to. (1 Chronicles 20:5)
"And there came to be war again with the Phi·lisʹtines; and El·haʹnan the son of Jaʹir got to strike down Lahʹmi the brother of Go·liʹath the Gitʹtite, the shaft of whose spear was like the beam of loom workers."

A Hebrew - English Bible: According to the Masoretic Text and the JPS 1917 Edition of 2 Samuel 21:19 again says:
"And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Beth-lehemite slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam."

Various codex/interlineal-based Bibles leave it as "Goliath".

Add to that knowledge the confirmation of the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (which was not edited by Jehovah's Witnesses either), the note about Goliath says:
<<(2) "The Goliath of 2 Samuel 21:19 is another person, and quite probably a son of the first Goliath. He was slain by Elhanan, one of David's mighty men. The person mentioned in 1 Chronicles 20:5 is called Lachmi, but this is almost certainly due to a corruption of the text. "The brother of Goliath" is the younger Goliath and probably a son of the greater Goliath, who had four sons, giants, one of them having 24 fingers and toes".>>

Therefore there is no need to worry about using the New World Translation, the only thing you need is to read the marginal reference . and not simply slander Jehovah's Witnesses, as you so much desired.

So now really, you have simply proven to us that the New World Translation Committee has done right in not adding the words "brother of" Goliath. So in fact they are not being condemned by God according to Revelation.
