From an excerpt from 李昌平 - 我向总理说实话 (2009)(p3)
"老了,政府不仅不养我们,还要我们这些老人养政府,天理难容啊!"

translation in Wenlin - f.e. an intolerable justice

Editor: although probably all dicts say 'intolerable injustice', it's not restricted to that. F.i. you could say of a criminal behavior that it's 天理難容

Interesting that the typo "intolerable justice" is on Z('s source). Is it in Wenlin too?
Diff:
# 天理難容 天理难容 [tian1 li3 nan2 rong2] /an intolerable justice/God forbid!/
+ 天理難容 天理难容 [tian1 li3 nan2 rong2] /Heaven cannot tolerate this (idiom)/intolerable behavior/
