We have made constellations in the sky and decorated them for the onlookers. 16 and We have made them secure against every satanic force accursed 17 except for those who stealthily try to listen to the heavens, but who are chased away by a bright flame. 18 And the earth! We have stretched it out and have cast thereon mountains firm, and We have caused to spring up thereon everything weighed. 19 We have provided therein a means of livelihood for you and for all those creatures for whom you do not provide. 20 And there is not of aught but with Us are the treasures thereof, and We send it not down save in a measure known 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 Lo! and it is We, even We, Who quicken and give death, and We are the Inheritor. 23 And indeed We know those among you who came forward and indeed We know those among you who remained behind. 24 And verily, your Lord will gather them together. Truly, He is All-Wise, All-Knowing. 25
