إِن
تُصِبْكَ
حَسَنَةٌ
تَسُؤْهُمْ
وَإِن
تُصِبْكَ
مُصِيبَةٌ
يَقُولُوا
قَدْ
أَخَذْنَا
أَمْرَنَا
مِن
قَبْلُ
وَيَتَوَلَّوا
وَّهُمْ
فَرِحُونَ

If some good should befall you, it upsets them; but if an adversity befalls you, they say, ‘We had already taken our precautions in advance,’ and they go away boasting.
— Ali Quli Qarai
If good befalls thee, it grieves them; but if a misfortune befalls thee, they say, "We took indeed our precautions beforehand," and they turn away rejoicing.
