Targum zu Jeschijahu 45:9
ה֗וֹי רָ֚ב אֶת־יֹ֣צְר֔וֹ חֶ֖רֶשׂ אֶת־חַרְשֵׂ֣י אֲדָמָ֑ה הֲיֹאמַ֨ר חֹ֤מֶר לְיֹֽצְרוֹ֙ מַֽה־תַּעֲשֶׂ֔ה וּפָעָלְךָ֖ אֵין־יָדַ֥יִם לֽוֹ׃ (ס)
O über den, der mit seinem Bildner hadert, ein Scherben [hadert] mit dem Tonkneter! Spricht denn der Ton zu seinem Bildner: Was machst du? oder: Dein Werk ist nicht handlich!
Targum Jonathan on Isaiah
Woe to him who thinks of striving against the words of his Creator, and trusts that the images of a potter shall do him good, which are made out of the dust of the earth. Is it possible, that the clay could say to him that worketh it, Thou hast not made me? or thy work, He hath no hands?
