Pasi i kaloi frika Ibrahimit dhe i erdhi myzhdeja, nisi të bëjë fjalë me Ne[2] për popullin e Lutit.
অতঃপর (মেহমানদেরকে নিশ্চিত ফিরিশতা জেনে) যখন ইবরাহীমের ভীতি দূরীভূত হলো এবং তার কাছে (পুত্র সন্তানের) সুসংবাদ এলো, তখন সে লূতের সম্প্রদায় সম্পর্কে আমার (রাসূলদের) সাথে বাদানুবাদ করতে লাগল।(২৮)
I pošto Ibrahima minu strah i dođe mu radosna vijest, on poče raspravljati s Nama o narodu Lutovu;
I pošto Abrahama minu strah i dođe mu radosna vijest, on poče raspravljati s Nama o narodu Lotovu;
Nde kulol ngol iwnoo e Ibraahiima, welo-welo o ari e makko, homo yeddandira e amen fii yimɓe Luuti ɓeen.
როცა იბრაჰიმს შიშმა გაუარა და სასიხარულო ამბავი ეუწყა, ლუტის ხალხის გამო დაგვიწყო დავა (იქნება და გადაათქმევინოს მათი განადგურება).
Als dann die Angst von Ibrahim gewichen und die frohe Botschaft zu ihm gekommen war, begann er mit Uns über das Volk Luts zu streiten.
Όταν ο φόβος έφυγε από τον Αβραάμ και του ήρθαν τα χαρμόσυνα νέα (για τον Ισαάκ και τον Ιακώβ), άρχισε να συζητάει με τους Αγγέλους Μας σχετικά με τον λαό του Λωτ (ανησυχώντας για τον Προφήτη Λωτ, αλλά οι Άγγελοι του απάντησαν ότι θα τον σώσουν).
फिर जब इबराहीम का भय दूर हो गया और उसे शुभ सूचना मिल गई, तो वह हमसे लूत की जाति के बारे में झगड़ने लगा।[27]
Quando il turbamento abbandonò Ibrāhīm, e gli arrivò il Buon Annuncio, discusse con Noi sul popolo di Lūt.
74. Tada, kai baimė paliko Ibrahimo (Abraomo) (mintis), ir jį pasiekė geros naujienos, jis pradėjo maldauti Mūsų (Mūsų pasiuntinių) dėl Lūto (Loto) žmonių.
Yeroma Ibraahiim irraa sodaan deemee gammachuun isatti dhuftu, (waayee) ummata Luux keessatti Nuun (Ergamtoota teenyaan) falamuu eegale.
И когда страх покинул Ибрахима и к нему пришла благая весть, он стал спорить с Нами о народе Лута.
И пошто Аврама прође страх и дође му радосна вест, он поче да расправља са Нама о Лотовом народу;
Basi hofu ilipomwondoka Ibrahim, na ikawa ile bishara imemfikia, alianza kujadiliana nasi juu ya kaumu ya Lut.
När fruktan lämnat Abraham och det glädjande beskedet nått honom började han argumentera med oss till förmån för Lots folk.
"İbrahim’in korkusu gidip kendisine müjde gelince, Lût kavmi hakkında bizim (elçilerimiz) le tartışmaya koyuldu."
جب ابراہیم کا ڈر خوف جاتا رہا اور اسے بشارت بھی پہنچ چکی تو ہم سے قوم لوط کے بارے میں کہنے سننے لگے.[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.

She said, "Alas for me. Shall I give birth, when I am an old woman, and this, my husband, is an old man? This is truly a strange thing."
She said: Oh woe is me! Shall I bear a child when I am an old woman, and this my husband is an old man? Lo! this is a strange thing
Said she, ' Alas for me! shall I bear a son when I am an old woman, and this husband of mine an old man? Verily, this is a wonderful thing
She said, "Ah, woe is me! shall I bear a son when I am old, and when this my husband is an old man? This truly would be a marvellous thing
She said, alas! Shall I bear a son, who am old; this my husband also being advanced in years? Verily this would be a wonderful thing

Verily, Abraham was right kind, pitiful, relenting

"O Abraham, refrain from this. The command of your Lord has come; they have incurred an irreversible punishment."
(It was said) O Abraham! Forsake this! Lo! thy Lord's commandment hath gone forth, and lo! there cometh unto them a doom which cannot be repelled
O Abraham! avoid this; verily, the bidding of thy Lord has come; verily, there is coming to them torment that cannot be put off
O Abraham! desist from this; for already hath the command of thy God gone forth; as for them, a punishment not to be averted is coming on them
The angels said unto him, O Abraham, abstain from this; for now is the command of thy Lord come, to put their sentence in execution, and an inevitable punishment is ready to fall upon 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 — 0.60 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.
