Ezekiel 29:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶ The nation of Israel will never trust Egypt again. The people of Israel will remember how wrong they were whenever they turned to Egypt ⌞for help⌟. Then they will know that I am the Almighty Lord.’ ”

¹⁷ On the first day of the first month in the twenty-seventh year, the Lord spoke his word to me. He said, ¹⁸ “Son of man, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon made his army fight hard against Tyre. Every soldier’s head was worn bald, and every soldier’s shoulder was rubbed raw. Yet, he and his army got no reward for their hard-fought battle against Tyre.
