Philippians 2:9-11 (KJV)

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

My question is this: Did Paul intend to say that the confession would be that of lordship (that is, in the vein of "Kaiser kurios" or confessing Jesus as king), or of dinivity (that is, Jesus is YHWH)?

What support is there for both, if any?
