Here's L&N:

L&N follows somewhat what I had noticed in BAGD. It seems to me that these
citations have a complement to profess/confess, Namely: confesses ME,
confess HIM, we profess THE HOPE, confess YOU...
And note a similar quotation by Paul in Phil 2:11
KAI PASA GLWSSA EXOMOLOGHSHTAI hOTI KURIOS IHSOUS CRISTOS
This is why I was expecting some hOTI or complement to confess.
Are you saying then that you understand this construct in Rm 14:11
to say something like, "every tongue shall openly profess their allegience
to God."
Thanks,
Mark Wilson
