Ezekiel 17:15-17

English Standard Version

^15 (A)But he rebelled against him by sending his ambassadors ^(B)to Egypt, that they might give him horses and a large army. ^(C)Will he thrive? Can one escape who does such things? Can he ^(D)break the covenant and yet escape?

^16 (E)“As I live, declares the Lord God, surely ^(F)in the place where the king dwells ^(G)who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant with him he broke, in Babylon he shall die. ^17 (H)Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company will not help him in war, ^(I)when mounds are cast up and siege walls built to cut off many lives.
