Isaiah 45:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 I form light and create darkness,
I make weal and create woe;
I the Lord do all these things.(A)
8 Shower, O heavens, from above,
and let the skies rain down righteousness;
let the earth open, that salvation may spring up,[a]
and let it cause righteousness to sprout up also;
I the Lord have created it.(B)
9 Woe to those who strive with their Maker,
earthen vessels with the potter![b]
Does the clay say to the one who fashions it, “What are you making”?
or “Your work has no handles”?(C)
