وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى سَخَّرَ ٱلْبَحْرَ لِتَأْكُلُوا۟ مِنْهُ لَحْمًۭا طَرِيًّۭا وَتَسْتَخْرِجُوا۟ مِنْهُ حِلْيَةًۭ تَلْبَسُونَهَا وَتَرَى ٱلْفُلْكَ مَوَاخِرَ فِيهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿14﴾

16:14. And it is He who subjected the sea for you to eat from it tender meat and to extract from it ornaments which you wear. And you see the ships plowing through it, and [He subjected it] that you may seek of His bounty; and perhaps you will be grateful.

اور وہی تو ہے جس نے دریا کو تمہارے اختیار میں کیا تاکہ اس میں سے تازہ گوشت کھاؤ اور اس سے زیور (موتی وغیرہ) نکالو جسے تم پہنتے ہو۔ اور تم دیکھتے ہو کہ کشتیاں دریا میں پانی کو پھاڑتی چلی جاتی ہیں۔ اور اس لیے بھی (دریا کو تمہارے اختیار میں کیا) کہ تم خدا کے فضل سے (معاش) تلاش کرو تاکہ اس کا شکر کرو
