عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمۡثَٰلَكُمۡ وَنُنشِئَكُمۡ فِي مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ

AAala an nubaddila amthalakum wanunshiakum fee ma la taAAlamoona

from changing your Forms and creating you (again) in (forms) that ye know not.

Walaqad AAalimtumu alnnashata aloola falawla tathakkaroona

And ye certainly know already the first form of creation: why then do ye not celebrate His praises?

Aantum tazraAAoonahu am nahnu alzzariAAoona

Law nashao lajaAAalnahu hutaman fathaltum tafakkahoona

Were it Our Will, We could crumble it to dry powder, and ye would be left in wonderment,
