Ezekiel 29:20
because they wrought for me—the Chaldeans, fulfilling My will as to Tyre (compare Jeremiah 25:9).
18 “Son of man, aNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to labor strenuously against Tyre; every head was made bbald, and every shoulder rubbed raw; yet neither he nor his army received wages from Tyre, for the labor which they expended on it.
19 Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Surely I will give the land of Egypt to aNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; he shall take away her wealth, carry off her spoil, and remove her pillage; and that will be the wages for his army.
20 I have given him the land of Egypt for his labor, because they aworked for Me,’ says the Lord God.
21 ‘In that day aI will cause the horn of the house of Israel to spring forth, and I will bopen your mouth to speak in their midst. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”
