Then it will be said to those who did wrong, "Taste the torment of eternity. Will you be rewarded except for what you used to do?"

Pastaj, atyre që bënë padrejtësi, do t'u thuhet: "Shijoni dënimin e përjetshëm! A mos po ndëshkoheni për diçka tjetër përveç asaj që keni punuar?"
অতঃপর যালিমদেরকে (শাস্তিতে প্রবেশ করানো হলে এবং তারা তা থেকে বেরিয়ে যাওয়ার আবেদন করলে) বলা হবে, (জাহান্নামের) চিরস্থায়ী শাস্তির স্বাদ গ্রহণ করো। তোমরা যা উপার্জন করতে, তারই প্রতিফল ছাড়া আর কিছু কি তোমাদেরকে দেওয়া হচ্ছে?
Zatim će onima koji su nepravdu učinili rečeno biti: "Iskusite patnju vječnu; da li ste izloženi kazni osim prema onome što ste činili?!"
Zatim će onima koji su nepravdu učinili rečeno biti: "Iskusite patnju vječnu; jeste li izloženi kazni osim prema onome što ste činili?!"
Refti tooñɓe ɓen mbi'anee : "meeɗee lepte luttugol. hara on njoɓete si wanaa kon ngonnoɗon e faggitaade?"
შემდეგ ეტყვიან მათ, რომლებმაც უსამართლოდ მოექცნენ საკუთარ თავს თავიანთი ურწმუნოებით: «იგემეთ მარადიული სასჯელი! განა სხვა რამით გეზღვებათ, გარდა იმისა, რასაც იხვეჭდით?»
Dann wird zu denen, die Unrecht getan haben, gesagt werden: „Kostet die ewige Strafe!“ Wird euch denn etwas Anderes vergolten als das, was ihr erworben habt?
Έπειτα (την Ημέρα της Κρίσεως) θα ειπωθεί στους άδικους: «Γευτείτε το αιώνιο μαρτύριο! Θα λάβετε ως ανταπόδοση κάτι άλλο εκτός απ' αυτά που κάνατε (στην εγκόσμια ζωή σας);»
फिर अत्याचारियों से कहा जाएगा कि स्थायी यातना का मज़ा चखो। तुम्हें उसी का बदला दिया जाएगा, जो तुम कमाया करते थे।
Poi è stato detto agli ingiusti: «Assaggiate la punizione eterna. Perché dovreste essere ricompensati per qualcosa se non per quello che avete meritato?»
52. Tada bus pasakyta tiems, kurie nuskriaudė save: „Ragaukite jūs amžinos kančios! Ar jums atlyginta išskyrus už tai, ką jūs įgydavote?“
Ergasii isaan miidhaa hojjataniin ni jedhama: “Azaaba zalaalam dhandhamaa! Sila waan hojjataa turtaniin malee galata nigalfamtanii?”
Затем будет сказано тем, которые поступали несправедливо: «Вкусите наказание вечного пребывания! Воздаётся ли вам иначе как за то, что вы приобретали?»
Затим ће онима који су били незнанобошци да буде речено: „Искусите вечну патњу; да ли сте кажњени осим према ономе што сте чинили?!“
Kisha wale waliodhulumu wataambiwa, "Ionjeni adhabu ya kudumu. Kwani mtalipwa isipokuwa yale mliyokuwa mkiyachuma?"
Sedan ska det sägas till de orättfärdiga: ”Känn på det eviga straffet! Är det något annat än era egna handlingar ni straffas för?”
Sonra zalimlere şöyle denir: "Sonsuz azabı tadın, kazanmakta olduğunuzdan başkasının karşılığını mı bulacaksınız?"
پھر ﻇالموں سے کہا جائے گا کہ ہمیشہ کا عذاب چکھو۔ تم کو تو تمہارے کیے کا ہی بدلہ ملا ہے.
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.

The translators word this verse differently
Say, "Have you considered? If His punishment overtakes you by night or by day, what part of it will the guilty seek to hasten?"
Say: Have ye thought: When His doom cometh unto you as a raid by night, or in the (busy) day; what is there of it that the guilty ones desire to hasten
Say, 'Let us see now when the torment comes to you, by night or day, what will the sinners fain bring on thereof
SAY: How think ye? if God's punishment came on you by night or by day, what portion of it would the wicked desire to hasten on
Say, tell me; if the punishment of God overtake you by night, or by day, what part thereof will the ungodly wish to be hastened

The translators word this verse differently
"Then, when it falls, will you believe in it? Now? When before you tried to hasten it?"
Is it (only) then, when it hath befallen you, that ye will believe? What! (Believe) now, when (until now) ye have been hastening it on (through disbelief)
And when it has fallen - will ye believe in it now!- And yet ye wish to bring it on
When it falleth on you, will ye believe it then? Yes! ye will believe it then. Yet did ye challenge its speedy coming
When it falleth on you, do ye then believe it? Now do ye believe, and wish it far from you, when ye formerly desired it should be hastened

And they inquire of you, "Is it true?" Say, "Yes, by my Lord, it is true, and you cannot evade it."
And they ask thee to inform them (saying): Is it true? Say: Yea, by my Lord, verily it is true, and ye cannot escape
They will ask thee to inform them whether it be true. Say, 'Aye, by my Lord! verily, it is the truth, nor can ye weaken him
They will desire thee to inform them whether this be true? SAY: Yes! by my Lord it is the truth: and it is not ye who can weaken Him

The translators word this verse differently
Had every soul which had done wrong possessed everything on earth, it would offer it as a ransom. They will hide the remorse when they witness the suffering, and it will be judged between them equitably, and they will not be wronged.
And if each soul that doeth wrong had all that is in the earth it would seek to ransom itself therewith; and they will feel remorse within them, when they see the doom. But it hath been judged between them fairly and they are not wronged
And if every soul that hath done wrong had whatever is in the earth, it would give it as a ransom. They will utter their repentance when they see the torment; and it shall be decided between them with justice, nor shall they be wronged
And every soul that hath sinned, if it possessed all that is on earth, would assuredly ransom itself therewith; and they will proclaim their repentance when they have seen the punishment: and there shall be a rightful decision between them, and they shall not be unjustly dealt with
Verily, if every soul which hath acted wickedly had whatever is on the earth, it would willingly redeem it self therewith at the last day. Yet they will conceal their repentance, after they shall have seen the punishment: And the matter shall be decided between them with equity; and they shall not be unjustly treated

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 — 0.62 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.
