Pra, ky është Allahu, Zoti juaj i vërtetë! E, çfarë ka përtej së vërtetës, përveç humbjes? E, përse shmangeni, atëherë?!
অতএব, (হে মানুষ! যিনি এসব করেন) তিনিই আল্লাহ, তোমাদের সত্য রব। সত্য জানার পরে তা ত্যাগ করা, বিভ্রান্তি ছাড়া আর কী থাকে? কাজেই (এ সুস্পষ্ট সত্য থেকে) তোমাদেরকে কোথায় ফেরানো হচ্ছে?
To vam je Allah, Gospodar vaš istinski! Zar poslije istine ima išta osim zablude?! Pa kuda se onda odmećete?
To vam je Allah, Gospodar vaš istinski! Zar poslije istine ima išta osim zablude?! Pa kuda se onda odmećete?
Ko oon ɗoon mo'on Alla, woni jeyɗo on e goonga. Ko holɗum woni ɓaawo goonga si wanaa majjere? Ko honno pirlitirte ɗon?
აი, ასეთია ალლაჰი, თქვენი ჭეშმარიტი უფალი! მაშ, რა დარჩა ჭეშმარიტების შემდეგ, თუ არა გზააბნეულობა? და როგორ აქცევთ ზურგს ჭეშმარიტებას!
So ist das doch Allah, euer wahrer Herr. Was gibt es denn über die Wahrheit hinaus außer dem Irrtum? Wie lasst ihr euch nun abwenden?
Αυτός είναι ο Αλλάχ, ο Αληθινός Κύριός σας. Τι άλλο υπάρχει (για σας) μετά από την αλήθεια (αν δεν τη θέλετε), παρά μόνο η πλάνη! Πώς λοιπόν απομακρύνεστε (από την αλήθεια);
तो वह अल्लाह ही तुम्हारा सच्चा पालनहार है, फिर सत्य के बाद पथभ्रष्टता के सिवा और क्या हैॽ फिर तुम कहाँ फेरे जाते हो?
Quello è Allāh, il vostro Dio, la Verità. Oltre la Verità, cosa c’è se non la perdizione? Come fate ad allontanarvi?
32. Toks yra Allahas, jūsų Viešpats teisingas. Taigi po tiesos, kas dar gali būti, išskyrus klaidą? Kaip jūs tada esate apgręžti?
Sun Allaah, Gooftaa keessan kan dhugaati. Dhugaa booda jallina malee maaltu jira? (hinjiru). Akkamitti irraa gara galfamtan?
Таков Аллах, ваш Истинный Господь! Что же после истины может быть, кроме заблуждения? Так как же вы можете быть настолько отклонены от истины?
То вам је Аллах, ваш истински Господар! Зар после Истине има ишта осим заблуде?! Па куда се онда одмећете?
Basi huyo ndiye Mwenyezi Mungu, Mola wenu Mlezi wa haki. Na kipo kitu gani baada ya haki, isipokuwa upotovu tu? Basi ni vipi mnageuzwa?
Ja, sådan är Gud, er sanne Herre. Vad finns det efter sanningen annat än villfarelse? Hur kan ni då vända er bort?
İşte hak olan Rabbiniz Allah budur. Haktan sonra da sapıklıktan başka ne vardır? O halde nasıl (haktan) çevriliyorsunuz.
سو یہ ہے اللہ تعالیٰ جو تمہارا رب حقیقی ہے۔ پھر حق کے بعد اور کیا ره گیا بجز گمراہی کے، پھر کہاں پھرے جاتے ہو؟[1]
5 cleared translations, newest first, by year of publication, so the modern English comes before the historical ones. That is an ordering by date, not a judgement. Each is shown complete — this platform never excerpts a translation — and each renders under its translator's name. No translation here is marked as the correct one.
Which translations appear here is set by copyright: they are the ones whose rights could be documented and cleared. The selection is not a judgement that these are the best.
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.
shown so it's never read alone

The translators word this verse differently
There, every soul will experience what it had done previously; and they will be returned to God, their True Master; and what they used to invent will fail them.
There doth every soul experience that which it did aforetime, and they are returned unto Allah, their rightful Lord, and that which they used to invent hath failed them
There shall every soul prove what it has sent on before; and they shall be returned unto God, their God, their true sovereign, and that which they devised shall stray away from them
There shall every soul make proof of what itself shall have sent on before, and they shall be brought back to God, their true lord, and the deities of their own devising shall vanish from them
There shall every soul experince that which it shall have sent before it; and they shall be brought before God, their true Lord; and the false deities which they vainly imagined, shall disappear from before them

These figures count the words the translations share. They measure wording, not meaning, and they do not say which translation is right.
Derived measure: mean pairwise Jaccard distance over the lowercased word sets of the 5 renderings above — 0.54 on a scale where 0 means identical wording and 1 means no shared words. It is computed, not judged.
The page says a verse is worded differently only above the cut below. The cut is a stated convention, not a property of the text, and it can be changed.
One bar per pair of renderings, longest bar for the pair sharing fewest words. Every pair is shown; none is singled out.
The platform does not say which is right, and does not characterise what the difference means. The renderings are placed together so the difference is visible; reading it is the reader's work.

7 sources stand behind this page. Each is listed once, in the order the page first cites it, with the licence it was cleared under and what was actually read. Nothing on this page rests on a source that is not here.
CLEARED. Licence read verbatim from the block embedded in this very file. Ingested exactly as shipped: no normalisation, no stripping of marks, no Unicode recomposition.
CLEARED on a licence read first-hand from the translator's own download page, not from an aggregator. Tanzil also hosts this translation, but under a blanket "non-commercial purposes only" term that directs the user to the translator or publisher for permission - a hosting disclaimer, not a grant - so the grant was taken from the licensor directly. The "God" edition was ingested; ClearQuran also publishes an "Allah" edition, differing in how the divine name is rendered, which is not ingested.
CLEARED ON THE WORK, WITH TWO RECORDED CAVEATS ON THIS COPY. (1) Rights basis is the expired copyright term, NOT the redistributing repository's licence. That repository dedicates its contents to the public domain under the Unlicense while also redistributing plainly in-copyright translations (Abdel Haleem, Saheeh International, The Study Quran), so it is dedicating rights it cannot hold and its blanket grant is not relied upon here. (2) The file declares its own upstream as tanzil.net, and Tanzil attaches a non-commercial condition to its TRANSLATION distributions, though not to its Qur'anic text. Since Pickthall's copyright has expired, nobody holds rights in these words and no licence is required from anyone; Tanzil's terms are a contract binding those who download from Tanzil, which we did not. The chain is nonetheless not spotless and Anwar may prefer a clean digitisation of the 1930 printing. NOT VERIFIED: that this digital text matches the 1930 first printing rather than a later revised edition. No page images were collated. Recorded as unverified rather than presented as established. SERVED TEXT DIFFERS FROM THE CITED FILE AT ONE VERSE, 37:97: the file reads "red-hotfire" (a glued token, also in Gutenberg #16955); the served row reads "red-hot fire", restored 2026-09-13 from Pickthall, The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (London: George Allen & Unwin, printed for Alfred A. Knopf; 1930), p. 460, XXXVII 97 - scan archive.org in.ernet.dli.2015.216140, PDF page 475; banked data/derivation-sources/pickthall-1930-dli-2015.216140-text.pdf (sha256 70e81146c97fa3a590243a82e04e349108546074787e2551a78c616202138870) on Anwar Malik's grant.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is not stated by the redistributor and the printing is unverified. No statement of purpose is recorded for Palmer because none was sourced from his own preface in this pass; nothing is asserted on his behalf.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. TWO edition caveats. (1) The upstream is not stated by the redistributor. (2) Rodwell's own edition PRESENTS THE SURAHS IN HIS OWN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, not the mushaf order — he says so in his preface. This digital text is keyed to mushaf order, so it derives from a restored-order printing (such as the Everyman edition) rather than from Rodwell's own arrangement. Which printing is not stated and has not been established.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is NOT STATED by the redistributor, so the printing it represents is unverified; Sale's text was reprinted and re-edited many times between 1734 and 1900. Recorded as unverified rather than assumed to be the first edition.
CLEARED. Parallel edition, held in ayah_text_variants. It sits alongside the Uthmani spine for search normalisation and is never used to correct it.
