Romans 9:18 ASV

¹⁶  So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that hath mercy.

¹⁷  For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might show in thee my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.

¹⁸  So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and whom he will be hardeneth.

¹⁹  Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he still find fault? For who withstandeth his will?

²⁰  Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why didst thou make me thus?
