আর কাফিররা বলে: ‘(হে মুহাম্মাদ!) তুমি রাসূল নও।’ (হে রাসূল! তুমি তাদেরকে) বলো: ‘(আমার রাসূল হিসেবে প্রেরিত হওয়ার ব্যাপারে) আল্লাহ এবং যাদের কাছে (পূর্ববর্তী আসমানী) কিতাবের জ্ঞান আছে, তারা আমার ও তোমাদের মধ্যে সাক্ষী হিসেবে যথেষ্ট।

ხოლო ურწმუნოები ამბობენ: «შენ (ო, მუჰამმად) არ ხარ (ალლაჰის) მიერ წარგზავნილი!» უთხარი (მათ) (ო, შუამავალო): «ალლაჰი საკმარისია მოწმედ ჩემსა და თქვენს შორის, და (ასევე) საკმარისია მოწმედ ისინი (იუდეველნი და ქრისტიანები), ვისაც ცოდნა აქვს წიგნის[1]!»
Und diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, sagen: „Du bist kein Gesandter.“ Sag: „Allah genügt als Zeuge zwischen mir und euch und derjenige, der das Wissen der Schrift hat.“
Λένε οι άπιστοι (σε σένα, ω, Μωχάμμαντ): «Δεν είσαι Απεσταλμένος.» Πες: «Ο Αλλάχ αρκεί ως Μάρτυρας ανάμεσα σε μένα και σε σας, καθώς και αυτοί που έχουν (κάποια) γνώση των (προηγούμενων) Βιβλίων (από τους Χριστιανούς και τους Εβραίους που πίστεψαν σε μένα γνωρίζοντας τις περιγραφές μου και τις ενδείξεις του ερχομού μου).»
और वे लोग जिन्होंने कुफ़्र किया, कहते हैं : आप किसी तरह रसूल नहीं हैं। आप कह दें : मेरे और तुम्हारे बीच अल्लाह ही गवाह पर्याप्त है, तथा वह व्यक्ति भी जिसके पास किताब का ज्ञान है।[25]
E dicono i miscredenti: “Tu non sei un inviato”. Di’ «Mi è sufficiente Allāh come testimone tra me e voi, e Colui che possiede la sapienza del Libro!»
43. O tie, kurie netikėjo, sako: „Tu (Muchammedai ﷺ ) nesi Pasiuntinys.“ Sakyk: „Pakankamas liudytojas tarp manęs ir jūsų yra Allahas ir taip pat tie, kurie turi žinių apie Raštą (tokie kaip Abdullah bin Salam ir kiti judėjai ir krikščionys, kurie priėmė islamą).“

Те, которые отвергли веру, говорят: «Ты — не посланник!» Скажи: «Достаточно Аллаха свидетелем между мной и вами, а также тех, у кого есть знание Писания».
Они који не верују говоре: „Ти ниси посланик.“ Реци: „Мени и вама Аллах ће да буде довољан као сведок, и они који знање из Књиге имају.“

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.

Do they not see how We deal with the earth, diminishing it at its edges? God judges; and nothing can hold back His judgment. And He is quick to settle accounts.
See they not how we aim to the land, reducing it of its outlying parts? (When) Allah doometh there is none that can postpone His doom, and He is swift at reckoning
Did they not see that we come to the land and diminish the borders thereof? God judges, and there is none to reverse His judgment, and He is swift at reckoning up
See they not that we come into their land and cut short its borders? God pronounceth a doom, and there is none to reverse his doom. And swift is He to take account
Do they not see that We come into their land, and straiten the borders thereof, by the conquests of the true believers? When God judgeth, there is none to reverse his judgment; and He will be swift in taking an account

The translators word this verse differently
Those before them planned, but the entire plan is up to God. He knows what every soul earns. Those who disbelieve will know to whom the Ultimate Home is.
Those who were before them plotted; but all plotting is Allah's. He knoweth that which each soul earneth. The disbelievers will come to know for whom will be the sequel of the (heavenly) Home
And those who were before them were crafty too; but God's is the craft altogether! He knows what every soul earns; and the misbelievers shall know whose is the recompense of the abode
Those who lived before them made plots: but all plotting is controlled by God: He knoweth the works of every one, and the infidels shall know whose will be the recompense of the abode
Their predecessors formerly devised subtle plots against their prophets; but God is master of every subtle device. He knoweth that which every soul deserveth: And the infidels shall surely know, whose will be the reward of paradise

In plain words — none yet for this verse
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 — 0.58 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.
