And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce (him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran, 69 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 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 And We have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding and on some of them they feed? 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned). 75 So let not their speech grieve thee. Verily We! We know whatsoever they keep secret and whatsoever they make known. 76 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it. 80 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is! 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
