Romans 9:19-23

19You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For awho can resist his will?” 20But who are you, O man, bto answer back to God? cWill what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?” 21 dHas the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump eone vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use? 22What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience fvessels of wrath gprepared for destruction, 23in order to make known hthe riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he ihas prepared beforehand for glory
