It is He Who sends down for you from the sky water. From it is drink, and with it grows vegetation for grazing.

Është Ai që e lëshon shiun nga qielli, prej të cilit keni për të pirë dhe me të cilin rriten bimët, ku i kullotni bagëtitë.
তিনিই সেই সত্ত্বা, যিনি আসমান থেকে পানি (বৃষ্টি) বর্ষণ করেন, যাতে রয়েছে তোমাদের জন্য পানীয় এবং তা থেকে হয় উদ্ভিদ, যাতে তোমরা জীবজন্তু চরাও।
On spušta s neba vodu koju pijete i kojom se natapa rastinje kojim stoku napasate.
On spušta s neba vodu koju pijete i kojom se natapa raslinje kojim stoku napasate.
Ko Kaŋko woni jippinirɗo ndiyam ka kammu, hino woodani on e majjam njaram, leɗɗe no (yalta) e majjam, ko e majjam kadi oornoton.
იგია, რომელმაც ზეციდან წყალი ჩამოავლინა; მისგან გაქვთ სასმელი [წყალი] და (ის აღმოაცენს) მისგან (მცენარეებსა და) ხეებს, სადაც თქვენ მწყემსავთ (თქვენს პირუტყვს).
Er ist es, Der vom Himmel Wasser herabkommen lässt; davon habt ihr etwas zu trinken, und davon (wachsen) Bäume, unter denen ihr (euer Vieh) frei weiden lasst.
Είναι Αυτός που στέλνει νερό (βροχή) από τον ουρανό, από το οποίο πίνετε, και από το οποίο μεγαλώνουν δέντρα (και φυτά) ανάμεσα στα οποία βοσκείτε (τα βοοειδή σας).
वही है, जिसने आकाश से कुछ पानी उतारा, जिसमें से तुम पीते हो तथा उसी से पेड़-पौधे उगते हैं, जिनमें तुम (पशुओं को) चराते हो।
Lui è Colui che ha fatto cadere dal cielo l’acqua; voi ne ricavate da bere e ne cresce l’erba per i pascoli.
10. Tai Jis, Kuris nuleidžia vandenį (lietų) iš dangaus. Iš jo jūs geriate ir iš jo (auga) augmenija, į kurią jūs siunčiate savo galvijus ganytis.
Inni Isa samii irraa bishaan buuse. Isiniif isa irraa dhugaatiitu jira. Isa irraas muka isin ishee keessatti (beyladoota) tikfattantu (marga).
Он — Тот, Кто ниспослал с неба воду: вам от неё — питьё, и от неё — растения, на которых вы выпасаете [скот].
Он је Тај Који са неба спушта воду коју пијете и она помаже да изникне биље којим стоку напасате.
Yeye ndiye anayewateremshia maji kutoka mbinguni. Katika hayo nyinyi mnapata ya kunywa, na miti ya kulishia.
Det är han som låter regnet falla från himlen; av detta kan ni dricka, och av detta gror växterna där er boskap betar.
Sizin için gökten bir su indiren O'dur. O sudan içersiniz ve hayvanları otlatacağınız bitkileri de onunla yetiştirirsiniz.
وہی تمہارے فائدے کے لیے آسمان سے پانی برساتا ہے جسے تم پیتے بھی ہو اور اسی سے اگے ہوئے درختوں کو تم اپنے جانوروں کو چراتے ہو.
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.

It is for God to point out the paths, but some of them are flawed. Had He willed, He could have guided you all.
And Allah's is the direction of the way, and some (roads) go not straight. And had He willed He would have led you all aright
God's it is to show the path; from it some turn aside: but had He pleased He would have guided you one and all
Of God it is to point out "the Way." Some turn aside from it: but had He pleased, He had guided you all aright
It appertaineth unto God, to instruct men in the right way; and there is who turneth aside from the same: But if He had pleased, He would certainly have directed you all

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 — 0.59 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.
