To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 68 We have not taught him poetry; it is not seemly for him. It is only a Remembrance and a Clear Koran, 69 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?- 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 Yet they have taken, apart from God, gods; haply they might 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 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary! 77 He questions Our Resurrection of him, but has forgotten his own creation. He has said, "Who will give life to the bones which have become ashes?" 78 (Muhammad), tell him, "He who gave them life in the first place will bring them back to life again. He has the best knowledge of all creatures. 79 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator. 81 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned. 83
