“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess to God.”
12 So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.

Romans 14:10–13 — New Living Translation (NLT)
10 So why do you condemn another believer? Why do you look down on another believer? Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. 11 For the Scriptures say,
“ ‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bend to me,
and every tongue will declare allegiance praise to God.’ ”

Every knee shall bow to Me,
And every tongue shall confess to God.”

“ ‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘Everyone will bow before me;
everyone will say that I am God.’ ”
