Zephaniah3:9
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language that they may all call upon the name of the LORD , to serve him with one consent .
Or then, afterwards, i. e. when my judgments have been executed, and have cut off the wicked.
I will give them a pure way of worshipping me, in Prayer, Praises and the issue of a purified heart, Ezek. 11.17, 18, 19.20▪ and 36. verse 26.
Perform all Religious service, all Religion being exprest thus by calling on the name of the Lord.
The Lord their God not Idols,
With one heart, and according to his own Law and Will, with one shoulder shall they bear the Yoke of the Law, alluding to Porters that join shoulder to shoulder in carrying great burthens.
