We have placed the signs of the Zodiac in the sky, and decked it out for those who can see; 16 and We have guarded it from every accursed devil: 17 Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame. 18 And the earth -- We stretched it forth, and cast on it firm mountains, and We caused to grow therein of every thing justly weighed, 19 And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers. 20 Naught is there, but its treasuries are with Us, and We send it not down but in a known measure. 21 We send rain-impregnated winds, and water from the sky which you drink, but you are not the keepers of its store. 22 Truly, it is We who bring to life and We who cause death and We are the inheritor of all things. 23 We know the ones of you who press forward, and We know the laggards; 24 And surely your Lord will gather them together; surely He is Wise, Knowing. 25
