He has created you by stages! (14)

Have you not seen how Allah created the seven heavens one above the other, (15)

setting in them the moon as a light and the sun as a lantern? (16)

Allah has caused you to grow out of the earth, (17)

and to it He will return you. Then, He will bring you forth. (18)

Allah has made the earth spread out for you (19)

so that you walk in its spacious paths." ' (20)

Noah said: 'My Lord, they have rebelled against me and followed he whose wealth and offspring increase him only in loss, (21)

they have devised a mighty plot, (22)

and said: 'Do not renounce your gods, do not leave waddan or suwa'an or yaghutha, or ya'uqa, or nasra. ' (23)
