Surah Al-Isra — 17:83

وَإِذَآ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَى ٱلْإِنسَـٰنِ أَعْرَضَ وَنَـَٔا بِجَانِبِهِۦ ۖ وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ ٱلشَّرُّ كَانَ يَـُٔوسًا

Wa izaaa an'amnaa 'alal insaani a'rada wa na-aa bijaani bihee wa izaa massahush sharru kaana ya'oosaa

When We favour man he turns arrogantly to one side, but when harm touches him, he falls into despair.

When we bestow favor on the human being, he turns away and withdraws to his side; and when harm touches him, he falls into despair.
