Lamentations 4:2

The precious sons of Zion,

Weighed against fine gold,

How they are regarded as ^aearthen jars,

The work of a potter’s hands!

Romans 9:20

20 On the contrary, who are you, ^aO man, who ^banswers back to God? ^cWill the thing molded say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this”?

21 Or does not the potter have authority over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel ¹for honorable use and another ²for dishonorable use?
