We have placed the signs of the Zodiac in the sky, and decked it out for those who can see; 16 And (moreover) We have guarded them from every cursed devil: 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and them doth a clear flame pursue. 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 And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers. 20 And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure. 21 We send fertilizing winds, and then cause rain to descend from the sky, providing you abundant water to drink even though you could not have stored it up for yourselves. 22 And most surely We bring to life and cause to die and We are the heirs. 23 And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come]. 24 And verily thy Lord! He will gather them, and verily He is Wise, Knowing. 25
