Ensuite nous avons fait de la goutte de sperme un grumeau de sang, puis du grumeau de sang un morceau de chair ; puis nous avons fait ce morceau de chair os, et les os nous les avons revêtus de chair, ensuite nous, l’avons produit au grand jour comme une autre création. Béni soit Dieu, le plus habile des créateurs !

Daarna vormden wij het zaad tot gestold bloed, en wij maakten het gestolde bloed tot een stuk vleesch; vervolgens vormden wij het stuk vleesch tot beenderen; wij bekleedden deze beenderen met vleesch, en brachten het daarna als eene nieuwe schepping voort. Geloofd zij dus God, de uitmuntendste schepper.
