And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 by which he may warn those who are living and may let the words of God come true against the unbelievers. 70 Have they not seen what We have created from the labor of Our own hands? We have given them cattle. 71 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped. 74 Those deities can render them no help. Yet these devotees act as though they were an army in waiting for them. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm-drop - then at once he is a clear adversary? 77 producing arguments against Us, and forgetting his own creation. He asks, "Who can give life back to bones after they have rotted away?" 78 Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 He, Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! You kindle therewith. 80 Is not He, who created the heavens and earth, able to create the like of them? Yes indeed; He is the All-creator, the All-knowing. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back. 83
