12. And indeed, We created humankind671 from an extract of clay, 13. then placed each ˹human˺ as a sperm-drop672 in a secure place, 14. then We developed the drop into a clinging clot, then developed the clot into a lump ˹of flesh˺, then developed the lump into bones, then clothed the bones with flesh, then We brought it into being as a new creation.673 So Blessed is God, the Best of Creators.
