The translators word this verse differently
Marked words appear in this translation and in no other English translation of this verse. Common small words and older spellings are not marked. The marks show where the wording differs, not where the meaning does.
To God bows down everything in the heavens and everything on earth-every living creature, and the angels, and without being proud.

Allahut i bie në sexhde çdo gjallesë që gjendet në qiej dhe në Tokë, e edhe melekët, të cilët nuk janë mendjemëdhenj
আর আসমানসমূহে যা আছে এবং জমিনে যে সব প্রাণী আছে, সবাই আল্লাহকেই সাজদাহ করে। আর ফিরিশতাগণও (তাঁরই সাজদাহ করে) এবং তারা (তাঁর ইবাদাত ও আনুগত্য করতে) অহংকার করে না।
Allahu sedždu čini sve živo na nebesima i na Zemlji, i meleci, a oni se ne ohole,
Allahu se klanja sve živo na nebesima i na Zemlji, i anđeli, a oni se ne ohole,
Ko Alla woni ko sujjanta kala ko woni ka kammuuli e ka leydi, immorde e ruugayngel, e maleykaaji ɓen, kamɓe ɓe townitotaako.(mawnakintaako.)
ალლაჰის წინაშე ქედს იხრის ცაში არსებული ყოველივე და მიწაზე ყოველი მოძრავი არსება [ცხოველი], და ანგელოზნიც; და ისინი არ ამპარტავნობენ.
Und vor Allah wirft sich (alles) nieder, was in den Himmeln und was auf der Erde an Tieren ist, und (auch) die Engel, und sie verhalten sich nicht hochmütig.
Προς τον Αλλάχ πέφτουν σε Σιτζούντ στάση (με τις παλάμες και το μέτωπο στο έδαφος) όποιοι βρίσκονται στους ουρανούς, και όποιοι βρίσκονται στη Γη από κάθε κινούμενο πλάσμα, επίσης και οι Άγγελοι (πέφτουν σε Σιτζούντ στάση) και δεν δείχνουν αλαζονεία (απέναντι στη λατρεία Του).
तथा आकाशों एवं धरती में जितने जीवधारी हैं, सब अल्लाह ही को सजदा करते हैं तथा फ़रिश्ते (भी)। और वे अहंकार नहीं करते।
E ad Allāh si prostrano ﴿وَلِلَّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِي السَّمَوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ﴾ chi è in cielo e in terra, gli animali e gli angeli, e non s’insuperbiscono,
49. Ir Allahui nusižemina viskas, kas yra danguose ir viskas, kas yra žemėje, iš judančių (gyvų) kūrinių ir angelų, ir jie nėra išdidūs [t. y. jie garbina savo Viešpatį (Allahą) paklusniai].
Rabbiif sujuuda godhu Wanti samiilee keessa jiraniifi Wanti dachii keessa jiran, Lubbu qabeeyyii irraafii maleeykonnis. Isaan hin boonan.
И перед Аллахом падает ниц всё, что в небесах, и всё, что на земле, — из живых существ, и ангелы — и они не превозносятся..
Аллаху се клања све живо на небесима и на Земљи, и анђели, а они се не охоле,
Na vinamsujudia Mwenyezi Mungu vyote vilivyo katika mbingu na katika ardhi, miongoni mwa wanyama mpaka Malaika na wala havitakabari.
Inför Gud faller allt i himlarna och på jorden ned i tillbedjan; varje levande varelse, ja, även änglarna. De har inget högmod.
Göklerde ve yerde olan tüm canlılar ve melekler hiç büyüklenmeden Allah’a secde ederler.
یقیناً آسمان وزمین کے کل جاندار اور تمام فرشتے اللہ تعالیٰ کے سامنے سجدے کرتے ہیں اور ذرا بھی تکبر نہیں کرتے۔
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
Have they not observed what God has created? Their shadows revolve from the right and the left, bowing to God as they shrink away.
Have they not observed all things that Allah hath created, how their shadows incline to the right and to the left, making prostration unto Allah, and they are lowly
Do they not regard whatever thing God has created; its shadow falls on the right or the left, adoring God and shrinking up
Have they not seen how everything which God hath created turneth its shadow right and left, prostrating itself before God in all abasement
Do they not consider the things which God hath created; whose shadows are cast on the right hand and on the left, worshipping God, and become contracted

Allah hath said: Choose not two gods. There is only One Allah. So of Me, Me only, be in awe
And God says, 'Take not to two gods; God is only one; me then do ye fear

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 — 0.75 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.
