To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 68 We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear: 69 So that he may warn him who is alive and feels, and justify the word against those who do not believe. 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat. 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 They have set up other gods besides God, hoping to be helped by them, 74 they are unable to succour their devotees, even though to them they may [appear to] be hosts drawn up [for succour]. 75 So do not let their sayings grieve you. Surely, We have knowledge of what they hide and all that they reveal. 76 And did not man see that We have created him from a drop of semen? Yet he is an open quarreller! 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say: "He who created you the first time. He has knowledge of every creation, 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 Is He who created the heavens and the earth unable to create their like? Yes, indeed, He is the Creator, the Knower. 81 His command, when He desires a thing, is to say to it 'Be,' and it is. 82 Exaltations to Him in whose Hand is the Kingdom of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
