The potter, vessels, and divine purpose

You will say then to me, "Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?"

But no, man, who are you who replies against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, "Why did you make me like this?"

Or hasn`t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?

What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath made for destruction,

and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,
