Exegesis
The parallel phrase kai pasa glossa exomologesetai tō theō {καὶ πᾶσα γλῶσσα ἐξομολογήσεται τῷ θεῷ | kaí pâ-sa glô-ssa ex-o-mo-lo-gé-se-tai tôi the-ôi} balances the first with coordinated kai, shifting from bodily submission (“every knee”) to verbal acknowledgment (“every tongue”).
The future middle exomologesetai {ἐξομολογήσεται | ex-o-mo-lo-gé-se-tai} emphasizes personal, decisive confession or praise directed to God in the dative. The Greek preserves a tightly structured parallelism (every knee / every tongue; bend / confess; to Me / to God), which the translations mirror using paired clauses and consistent future verbs to convey universality and certainty.
