Lamentations 4:2

Or has not the potter power over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for noble, and another for ignoble uses?

But I hold this treasure in an earthen vessel, in order that the surpassing greatness of the power may be from God, and not from myself.

Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for noble, some for ignoble uses.

The precious sons of Zion, comparable to fine gold, how are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, the work of the hands of the potter!

Or has not the potter power over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for noble, and another for ignoble uses?

But I hold this treasure in an earthen vessel, in order that the surpassing greatness of the power may be from God, and not from myself.

Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for noble, some for ignoble uses.
