Exegesis
In the second clause the Hitpael stem veyishtachavu {וְיִשְׁתַּחֲווּ | vəyištaḥăvu} ‘and will bow down’ denotes self-prostration, with lefanekha {לְפָנֶיךָ | lə-pā-nê-ḵā} ‘before You’ as the recipient.

All the ends of the earth will remember and return to the LORD and all the families of the nations will bow down before You.
