^18 (A)And now what do you gain by going to Egypt
    to drink the waters of ^(B)the Nile?^[a]
(C)Or what do you gain by going to Assyria
    to drink the waters of ^(D)the Euphrates?^[b]

^23 (A)How can you say, ‘I am not unclean,
    I have not gone after the Baals’?

^36 (A)How much you go about,
    changing your way!
You shall be ^(B)put to shame by Egypt
    as you were put to shame by Assyria.
