Lamentations 3:33-38
33For He 1does not 2afflict 3willingly Or 4grieve the sons of mankind.34To crush under 5one’s feet All the prisoners of the 6land,35To 7deprive a man of 8justice In the presence of the Most High,36To 910defraud someone in his lawsuit-- Of these things the Lord does not 11approve.37Who is 12there who speaks and it 13comes to pass, Unless the Lord has commanded it?38Is it not from the mouth of the Most High That 1415both adversity and good proceed?
