Or the thing you are making say, ‘He has no hands’?

Romans 9:19-21
New American Standard Bible
19 (A)You will say to me then, “(B)Why does He still find fault? For (C)who has resisted His will?” 20 On the contrary, who are you, [a](D)you foolish person, who (E)answers back to God? (F)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?
