so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,
so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,
