And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers. 16 And We have preserved it from every accursed devil, 17 Except for he who steals the listening and is then pursued by a visible flame. 18 We have spread out the earth and set upon it firm mountains. Everything We have caused to grow therein is justly weighed; 19 We have provided on it sustenance for you, and for those you cannot provide. 20 Naught is there, but its treasuries are with Us, and We send it not down but in a known measure. 21 And We send the winds fertilizing, then We send down water from the heaven and We give it to you to drink, and thereof ye could not be the treasurers. 22 It is indeed We Who grant life and cause death and it is We who shall be the sole Inheritors of all. 23 We know those of you who press forward, and We know the laggards, 24 It is your Lord who will gather them. He is all wise and all knowing. 25
