AND, INDEED, We have set up in the heavens great constellations, and endowed them with beauty for all to behold; 16 and guarded them from every stoned satan. 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and them doth a clear flame pursue. 18 And the earth -- We stretched it forth, and cast on it firm mountains, and We caused to grow therein of every thing justly weighed, 19 And We have appointed thereon for you livelihoods and also for those of whom ye are not the providers. 20 And there is not of aught but with Us are the treasures thereof, and We send it not down save in a measure known 21 We send the winds fertilizing, and We send down out of heaven water, from which you drink and you are not its treasurers. 22 It is We who give life and We who give death, and We are the One who will abide. 23 Surely We know those of you who have passed before and those who will come later. 24 Your Lord will surely gather them together: Certainly He is all-wise and all-knowing. 25
