Ezekiel 29:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ The house of Israel will never again bring guilt on itself by faithlessly turning to Egypt for help, for they will know that I am the Lord God.

¹⁷ In the twenty-seventh year, on the first day of the first month, the Lord’s word came to me: ¹⁸ Human one, Babylon’s King Nebuchadrezzar made his army labor very hard against Tyre. Every head was scraped bald, and every shoulder was rubbed raw, yet he got nothing from Tyre for himself or for his army for any of his efforts against it.
