AND, INDEED, We have set up in the heavens great constellations, and endowed them with beauty for all to behold; 16 And We guard it against every accursed Shaitan, 17 except for those who stealthily try to listen to the heavens, but who are chased away by a bright flame. 18 We stretched the earth and placed upon it firm stabilisers, and made all things grow upon it balanced evenly. 19 And we have given unto you livelihoods therein, and unto those for whom ye provide not. 20 And there is not a thing but with Us are the stores thereof. And we send it not down save in appointed measure. 21 And We send the winds fertilizing (to fill heavily the clouds with water), then caused the water (rain) to descend from the sky, and We gave it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its stores [i.e. to give water to whom you like or to withhold it from whom you like]. 22 And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor. 23 And indeed We know those among you who came forward and indeed We know those among you who remained behind. 24 Lo! thy Lord will gather them together. Lo! He is Wise, Aware. 25
