You will not be Tested beyond what you can bear!

The bible

Corinthians 10:13 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
13 There hath no temptation taken hold of you but such as is common to man. But God is faithful; He will not suffer you to be tempted beyond that which ye are able to bear, but with the temptation will also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

The quran

Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah Verse 286:
286 On no soul doth Allah place a burden greater than it can bear.

Reality :

The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that each year approximately one million people die from suicide, which represents a global mortality rate of 16 people per 100,000 or one death every 40 seconds. It is predicted that by 2020 the rate of death will increase to one every 20 seconds.

Question: Why are these one million people committing suicide every year? Is god lying? Were they not having more than they could handle?
