Ezekiel 29:17-20

17In the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:

18“Son of man, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon made his army labor strenuously against Tyre. Every head was made bald and every shoulder chafed, but he and his army received no compensation from Tyre for the labor he expended against it.

19Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: I am going to give the land of Egypt to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, and he will carry off its wealth, seizing its spoil and taking its plunder. This will be his army’s compensation.

20I have given him the land of Egypt as the pay he labored for, since they worked for me.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.
