18} “Son of man, ^(A)Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made his army labor ^(a)hard against Tyre; every head was made ^(B)bald and every shoulder was rubbed bare. But he and his army had no wages from Tyre for the labor that he had ^(b)performed against it.” ^{Tools

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.
