upon highly honored pages, (13)

exalted, purified, (14)

by the hands of scribes (15)

noble and pious. (16)

Perish the human! How unthankful he is! (17)

From what did He create him? (18)

From a (sperm) drop He created him and then determined him, (19)

then eased his path for him, (20)

then causes him to die and buries him, (21)

then, He will raise him when He wills. (22)
