Romans 9:21-23

New Life Version

²¹ The man making the pots has the right to use the clay as he wants to. He can make two pots from the same piece of clay. One can have an important use. The other one can be of little use. ²² It may be that God wants to show His power and His anger against sin. He waits a long time on some men who are ready to be destroyed. ²³ God also wanted to show His shining-greatness to those He has given His loving-kindness. He made them ready for His shining-greatness from the beginning.
