Translation of Verse 68-83

68. And whoever We grant a long life, We reverse them in development. 906 Will they not then understand?

69. We have not taught him poetry, nor is it fitting for him. This ˹Book˺ is only a Reminder and a clear Quran

70. to warn whoever is ˹truly˺ alive and fulfil the decree ˹of torment˺ against the disbelievers.

71. Do they not see that We singlehandedly 907 created for them, among other things, cattle which are under their control?

72. And We have subjected these ˹animals˺ to them, so they may ride some and eat others.

73. And they derive from them other benefits and drinks. Will they not then give thanks?

74. Still they have taken other gods besides Allah, hoping to be helped ˹by them˺.

75. They cannot help the pagans, even though they serve the idols as dedicated guards. 908

76. So do not let their words grieve you ˹O Prophet˺. Indeed, We ˹fully˺ know what they conceal and what they reveal.

77. Do people not see that We have created them from a sperm- drop, then-behold!-they openly challenge ˹Us˺?

78. And they argue with Us-forgetting they were created-saying, "Who will give life to decayed bones?"

79. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "They will be revived by the One Who produced them the first time, for He has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of every created being.

80. ˹He is the One˺ Who gives you fire from green trees, and-behold!-you kindle ˹fire˺ from them. 909

81. Can the One Who created the heavens and the earth not ˹easily˺ resurrect these ˹deniers˺?" Yes ˹He can˺! For He is the Master Creator, All-Knowing.

82. All it takes, when He wills something ˹to be˺, is simply to say to it: "Be!" And it is!

83. So glory be to the One in Whose Hands is the authority over all things, and to Whom ˹alone˺ you will ˹all˺ be returned.


Commentary

906. Human beings are born weak, then they reach their prime, then they grow weak after a certain age. See 30:54.

907. lit., 'what Our Own Hands have created.'

908. Another meaning is that those idols will be assembled to witness the torment of their worshippers on Judgment Day.

909. The verse refers to two types of Arabian trees, markh and ' afâr , which produce fire when their green branches are rubbed together.
