New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures
Jehovah's Witnesses, however, released their first complete Bible called "Neue-Welt-Übersetzung der Heiligen Schrift" (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures) in German in 1985. By the following year, in 1986, the "Neue-Welt-Übersetzung der Heiligen Schrift—mit Studienverweisen" (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures—With References) was released. In 1989, a new edition was released with the same name as "Neue-Welt-Übersetzung der Heiligen Schrift". The 1989 edition of the Bible is based on English 1984 edition of the "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures" which was released at the “Kingdom Increase” District Conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses on 1984 in United States. On February 2, 2019, one member of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses, released the revised edition of the "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures" in German with a new name—"Die Bibel. Neue-Welt-Übersetzung" This Bible is based from the English 2013 revision of the "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures" which was released at the 129th annual meeting of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania on October 5 and 6, 2013 in the Assembly Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Jersey City, New Jersey, U.S.A. This newly revised edition in German includes the use of more modern and understandable language, clarified Biblical expression, appendixes, and many more.
