We have set constellations in the heavens and made them pleasing to the beholders, 16 We have protected them from every condemned devil, 17 save him who may eavesdrop, and then a bright flame pursues him. 18 We stretched the earth and placed upon it firm stabilisers, and made all things grow upon it balanced evenly. 19 And created livelihoods for you in it, and created those for whom you do not provide the sustenance. 20 And there is not a thing but its (sources and) treasures (inexhaustible) are with Us; but We only send down thereof in due and ascertainable measures. 21 We send impregnating winds and send down water from the sky for you to drink and you have no (control over its) storage. 22 It is indeed We Who grant life and cause death and it is We who shall be the sole Inheritors of all. 23 To Us are known those of you who hasten forward, and those who lag behind. 24 And surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowing. 25
