translate English to French: For man does not put this question to the world, even though it is from the world that suffering often comes to him, but he puts it to God as the Creator and Lord of the world. And it is well known that concerning this question there not only arise many frustrations and conflicts in the relations of man with God, but it also happens that people reach the point of actually denying God.
Mais seul l'homme, en souffrant, sait qu'il souffre et se demande pour quelle raison; et il souffre d'une manière humainement plus profonde encore s'il ne trouve pas de réponse satisfaisante.
