And whomsoever We grant long life, We reverse him in creation. Reflect then they not? 68 AND [thus it is:] We have not imparted to this [Prophet the gift of] poetry, nor would [poetry] have suited this [message]: it is but a reminder and a [divine] discourse, clear in itself and clearly showing the truth, 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 Do they not see that We have created cattle for them, out of what Our hands have wrought, so they are their masters? 71 And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat. 72 And they have (other) benefits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink, will they not then be grateful? 73 And take other gods apart from God that they may perhaps give them help. 74 They are not able to give them succour; whereas they shall be against them host brought forward. 75 Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as well as what they disclose. 76 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 77 And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?" 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 He Who created from a green tree a fire for you, a fire to light your stoves with.” 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme 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
