Man We fashioned from fermented clay dried tingling hard,

Indeed We created man from sounding clay made out of black smelly mud.

Surely We created man of a clay of mud moulded,

AND, INDEED, We have created man out of sounding clay, out of dark-slime transmuted

And assuredly We have created human being from ringing clay of loam moulded.

And indeed, We created man from sounding clay of altered black smooth mud.

We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.

We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.

We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.

We created the human being from clay, from molded mud.

Indeed, We created man from sounding clay moulded from black mud.

Surely We brought man into being out of dry ringing clay which was wrought from black mud,

And indeed, We created man from dried (sounding) clay of altered mud.

Verily We created man of potter's clay of black mud altered,

Certainly We created man out of a dry clay [drawn] from an aging mud,

We created mankind from clay, molded from mud,

And We did certainly create man out of clay from an altered black mud.

We have created the human being out of pure mud-moulded clay

And certainly We created man of clay that gives forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape.

We created man out of dry clay, from moulded mud,

We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
