Isaiah 45:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ I will send victory from the sky like rain;
    the earth will open to receive it
    and will blossom with freedom and justice.
I, the Lord, will make this happen.”

^9 (A)Does a clay pot dare argue with its maker,
    a pot that is like all the others?
Does the clay ask the potter what he is doing?
    Does the pot complain that its maker has no skill?
¹⁰ Do we dare say to our parents,
    “Why did you make me like this?”
