وَإِن مِّن شَىْءٍ إِلَّا عِندَنَا خَزَآئِنُهُۥ وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا بِقَدَرٍۢ مَّعْلُومٍۢ

And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.

(And there is not a thing) of vegetation, fruits or rains (but with Us are the stores thereof) except that We have its keys; its keys are in Our Hand not in yours. (And We send it) i.e. rain (not down save in appointed measure) with a specific quantity and weight known to the One Who stores it.

وَأَرْسَلْنَا ٱلرِّيَٰحَ لَوَٰقِحَ فَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۭ فَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُمُوهُ وَمَآ أَنتُمْ لَهُۥ بِخَٰزِنِينَ

And We have sent the fertilizing winds and sent down water from the sky and given you drink from it. And you are not its retainers.

(And We send the winds fertilising) trees and clouds, (and cause water) rain (to descend from the sky, and give it you to drink) on the earth. (It is not ye who are the holders of the store) of its keys (thereof) i.e. of the rain.

And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor.

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنكُمْ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا ٱلْمُسْتَـْٔخِرِينَ

And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come].

(And verily We know the eager among you) i.e. those who have died of your fathers and mothers; it is also said that this means: those who come forward to the first line (and verily We know the laggards) those who are still alive among their sons and daughter; it is also said that this means: those who withdraw to the last line.
