And he whom We grant long life, We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength). Will they not then understand? 68 We have not taught him poetry; it is not seemly for him. It is only a Remembrance and a Clear Koran, 69 to the end that it may warn everyone who is alive [of heart,] and that the word [of God] may bear witness against all who deny the truth. 70 Observe they not that We have created for them, of that which Our hands have worked, cattle: so that they are their owners. 71 We have subjected these to them, so that some may be used for riding and some for food, 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 Yet they have taken, apart from God, gods; haply they might be helped. 74 They will not be able to help them and will be brought (to Us) as their levied troops. 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 77 And he has struck for Us a parable, and forgotten his own creation. He asks: 'Who will quicken the bones after they have decayed' 78 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)! 81 His Being alone is such that when He wills a thing to be, He but says unto 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
