And assuredly We have set constellations in the heaven and made it fairseeming unto the beholders 16 And We have guarded it from every Satan damned. 17 But any that gains a hearing by stealth, is pursued by a flaming fire, bright (to see). 18 And the earth - We have spread it out wide, and placed on it mountains firm, and caused [life] of every kind to grow on it in a balanced manner, 19 And We have provided therein means of subsistence,- for you and for those for whose sustenance ye are not responsible. 20 Of all things there are We have the stores, and send them down in determined 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 Lo! and it is We, even We, Who quicken and give death, and We are the Inheritor. 23 We know the ones of you who press forward, and We know the laggards; 24 And verily thy Lord! He will gather them, and verily He is Wise, Knowing. 25
