Lamentations 3:37-40

New International Version

³⁷ Who can speak and have it happen
    if the Lord has not decreed it?^(A)
38 Is it not from the mouth of the Most High
    that both calamities and good things come?^(B)
39 Why should the living complain
    when punished for their sins?^(C)

⁴⁰ Let us examine our ways and test them,^(D)
    and let us return to the Lord.^(E)
