Ezekiel 29:18-20
New American Standard Bible
18 “Son of man, (A)Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made his army labor [a]hard against Tyre; every head [b]had a (B)bald spot and every shoulder was rubbed raw. But he and his army acquired no wages from Tyre for the labor that he had [c]performed against it.” 19 Therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Behold, I am going to (C)give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. And he will carry off her (D)wealth and capture her spoils and seize her plunder; and it will be wages for his army. 20 I have given him the land of Egypt for his labor which he [d](E)performed, because they acted for Me,” declares the Lord God.
