Quote:

{78:6} Have We not made the earth a resting place?

I believe that مهاد means "paved" or "level", not "a resting place." So, I suggest,
{78:6} Have We not made the earth a cradle?

Quote:

{78:7} And the mountains as stakes?

Excellent translation.

Quote:

{78:8} And We created you in pairs

I'll only add the missing question mark at the end,
{78:8} And We created you in pairs?

Quote:

{78:9} And made your sleep [a means for] rest

I suggest,
{78:9} And We made your sleep a repose?

Quote:

{78:10} And made the night as clothing

I suggest,
{78:10} And We made the night a robe?

Quote:

{78:11} And made the day for livelihood

I suggest,
{78:11} And We made the day a livelihood?
