That We may thereby bring the dead land to life and give it as a drink to (most of the things) whom We have created, beasts and mankind in large numbers
So that We may give life with that to (any) dead city, and (furthermore) We provide this (water) for drink to many cattle and (nomadic) people that We have created
So that We may bring life to a dead land and nourish with it many animals and humans of Our creation.
Sayyed Abbas Sadr-Ameli
That thereby We may give life to a dead land, and We give many beasts and men that We have created to drink thereof
Al-muntakhab fi tafsir al-Qur'an al-Karim
Fresh water- with which We revive the dead land of a given town and supply drinking-water to the living among Our creation including cattle and a great many human beings
