AND, INDEED, We have set up in the heavens great constellations, and endowed them with beauty for all to behold; 16 and We have made them secure against every satanic force accursed 17 Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning 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 appointed thereon for you livelihoods and also for those of whom ye are not the providers. 20 Of all things there are We have the stores, and send them down in determined measure. 21 And We send the winds fertilizing, then send down water from the cloud so We give it to you to drink of, nor is it you who store it up. 22 for, behold, it is We - We alone - who grant life and deal death, and it is We alone who shall remain after all else will have passed away! 23 And certainly We know those of you who have gone before and We certainly know those who shall come later. 24 And surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowing. 25
