Romans 9:20-21
New American Standard Bible
20 On the contrary, who are you, [a](A)you foolish person, who (B)answers back to God? (C)The thing molded will not say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this,” will it? 21 Or does the potter not have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one object [b]for honorable use, and another [c]for common use?
