← Romans 9:21	Romans 9:22 (KJV)	Romans 9:23 →
Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?	[What] if God, willing to shew [his] wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:	And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
