وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ Qur’an Az-Zariyat (51:7)
Wa al ssam a i tha ti al h ubuk i
CONSIDER the firmament full of starry paths!3
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

I.e., "think of the Creator of this great universe and, hence, of your responsibility to Him".

By the sky full of orbits,
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
'And' by the heavens in their marvellous design!1
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab

 Or “By the heavens with their marvellous orbits.”

By the heaven full of paths,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke Pickthall
By the Sky with (its) numerous Paths 4993
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The study of the numerous regular orbits of the planets and irregularly regular orbits of comets, and the various motions, visible or invisible, of the fixed stars or revolving stars, form in themselves a network of knowledge or science, of a highly technical nature; the highest astronomy or mathematics can only barely reach its fringe. But these have all a fixed Plan and Purpose under Allah's Dispensation. In them variety leads to Unity. In contrast look at the confused medley of doctrines, views, and dicta put forward by the Sceptics, as described in the next verse.
