وَإِذَآ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَى ٱلْإِنسَٰنِ أَعْرَضَ وَنَـَٔا بِجَانِبِهِۦ وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ ٱلشَّرُّ فَذُو دُعَآءٍ عَرِيضٍۢ﴿٥١﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
And when We bestow favor upon man, he turns away and distances himself; but when evil touches him, then he is full of extensive supplication.

Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Man is fickle when Ease comes to Him after DifficultyAllah tells us that man never gets bored of asking his Lord for good things, such as wealth, physical health, etc., but if evil touches him -- i.e., trials and difficulties or poverty --فَيَئُوسٌ قَنُوطٌ(then he gives up all hope and is lost in despair.), i.e., he thinks that he will never experience anything good again.
