And indeed We created towers in the skies, and beautified it for the beholders. 16 and guarded them from every accursed Satan 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and him there followeth a flame gleaming. 18 And We spread out the earth, and placed mountains as anchors in it, and in it grew all things by a proper measure. 19 and there appointed for you livelihood, and for those you provide not for. 20 And there is not a thing but with Us are the treasures of it, and We do not send it down but in a known measure. 21 And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores. 22 It is We who give life and We who give death, and We are the One who will abide. 23 And indeed, We know the first generations of you who had passed away, and indeed, We know the present generations of you (mankind), and also those who will come afterwards. 24 Indeed your Lord will gather them all together. Surely He is All-Wise, All-Knowing. 25
