Zephaniah 3:9 — a pure language
“For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language [Literally: lip] that they all may call on the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one accord.”
Acts 2:1
“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
Isaiah 57:19
“I create the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near,’ says the Lord, ‘and I will heal him.’”
