And assuredly We have set constellations in the heaven and made it fairseeming unto the beholders 16 We have protected them from every condemned devil, 17 but if anyone eavesdrops, he is pursued by a bright flaming fire. 18 And the earth -- We stretched it forth, and cast on it firm mountains, and We caused to grow therein of every thing justly weighed, 19 and there appointed for you is a livelihood, and for those you do not provide. 20 Of all things there are We have the stores, and send them down in determined measure. 21 We send rain-impregnated winds, and water from the sky which you drink, but you are not the keepers of its store. 22 Lo! and it is We, even We, Who quicken and give death, and We are the Inheritor. 23 We know the people who lived before you and those who will come into existence after you. 24 and, behold, it is thy Sustainer who will gather them all together [on Judgment Day]: verily, He is Wise, All-Knowing! 25
