Whomsoever We grant a long life, We reverse him in his constitution. Do they still 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 That it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers. 70 Observe they not that We have created for them, of that which Our hands have worked, cattle: so that they are their owners. 71 And We have subdued them unto them so that some of them they have for riding and some they eat. 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped. 74 They are not able to give them succour; whereas they shall be against them host brought forward. 75 So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim. 76 Has the human being not considered that We have created him from a drop of fluid. He is openly quarrelsome. 77 And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. Says he: Who will give life to the bones when they are rotten? 78 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 80 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is. 82 So glory be to Him, in whose hand is the dominion of everything, and unto whom you shall be returned. 83
