NET © Notes

tn Heb “Certainly [or perhaps, “For”] then I will restore to the nations a pure lip.”

sn I will then enable the nations to give me acceptable praise. This apparently refers to a time when the nations will reject their false idol-gods and offer genuine praise to the one true God.

tn Heb “so that all of them will call on the name of the Lord.”

tn Heb “so that [they] will serve him [with] one shoulder.”
