I have 2 different JSON bookmark. Both with different date and content. When im trying to mix both, it will replace either one. I dont want replace. I want both bookmark content be there as i add them.

Im having this because i forget to put old JSON to newly install FF. So i make new JSON but cant mixing them up together.

this is simple example

1.json >>> 1.html & 2.html 2.json >> 3.html & 4.html

RESTORE mean i can see

1.html 2.html 3.html 4.html

in my bookmark. I need all of them.

A JSON bookmark file that is restored will replace existing bookmarks.
HTML bookmark files will append existing bookmarks.

Restore the first JSON file, then Export those bookmarks in HTML format. Then Restore the 2nd JSON file (which will replace the first restored file), then Import the HTML bookmarks file.

If you only have a few bookmarks then it is easier to select them all and copy them to the clipboard before restoring the second JSON backup. Then you can paste them back after you have restored the second JSON backup.
