Bible verse
Do not both adversity and good come from the mouth of the Most High?
Lamentations 3:38 · BSB
The verses around it, from Lamentations 3.
34 To crush underfoot all the prisoners of the land,
35 to deny a man justice before the Most High,
36 to subvert a man in his lawsuit—of these the Lord does not approve.
37 Who has spoken and it came to pass, unless the Lord has ordained it?
38 Do not both adversity and good come from the mouth of the Most High?
39 Why should any mortal man complain, in view of his sins?
40 Let us examine and test our ways, and turn back to the LORD.
41 Let us lift up our hearts and hands to God in heaven:
42 “We have sinned and rebelled; You have not forgiven.”
