Romans 9:19-23
191You will say to me then, “2Why does He still find fault? For 3who has resisted His will?”
20On the contrary, who are you, 45you foolish person, who 6answers back to God? 7The thing molded will not say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this,” will it?
21Or does the potter not have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one object 8for honorable use, and another 9for common use?
2210What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with great 11patience objects of wrath 12prepared for destruction?
23And He did so to make known 13the riches of His glory upon 14objects of mercy, which He 15prepared beforehand for glory,
