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.
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.
After him, We said to the Children of Israel, "Inhabit the land, and when the promise of the Hereafter arrives, We will bring you all together."

Pas kësaj, Ne u thamë bijve të Israilit: "Banoni në Tokë e, kur të vijë premtimi i fundit (Ditën e Gjykimit), Ne do t'ju sjellim të gjithë së bashku.
আর আমি এরপর (তার ধ্বংসের পর ) বানূ ইসরাঈলকে বললাম: ‘তোমরা জমিনে বাস করো। অতঃপর যখন (তোমাদের কাছে ) আখিরাতের প্রতিশ্রুতি আসবে, তখন আমি তোমাদেরকে (হিসাবের জন্য হাশরের মাঠে) একত্রিত করবো।
I poslije toga rekosmo sinovima Israilovim: "Naselite se u zemlji, pa kad vrijeme ahireta nastupi, sve ćemo vas zajedno dovesti."
I poslije toga rekosmo sinovima Izraelovim: "Naselite se u zemlji, pa kad vrijeme Smaka svijeta nastupi, sve ćemo vas zajedno dovesti."
Min Daalani ɓaawo makko ɓiɓɓe Israa'iila ɓe: "Hoɗee ka leydi, si fodoore sakkitiinde nden arii, min ngaddana on ko on muuɓiiɓe=fiiliibe".
და ჩვენ ვუთხარით მის შემდეგ [ფარაონის სიკვდილის შემდეგ] ისრაილის შთამომავლებს: «იცხოვრეთ ამ მიწაზე, და როცა მოვა მარადიული სიცოცხლის დაპირება [დადგება სამსჯავროს დღე], ჩვენ შეგკრებთ ყველას ერთად (განკითხვის ადგილზე)».
Und Wir sagten (nach der Vernichtung Fir'auns) zu den Kindern Israils: „Bewohnt (nun) das Land. Wenn dann das Versprechen des Jenseits eintrifft, bringen Wir euch allesamt (in verschiedene Gruppierungen) herbei.“
Και μετά απ' αυτόν (και την καταστροφή του), είπαμε στα παιδιά του Ισραήλ: «Κατοικήστε στη γη (του Λεβάντε). Και όταν έρθει η υποσχόμενη Ώρα της Ημέρας της Ανάστασης, θα σας συγκεντρώσουμε όλους (από τους τάφους σας για να λογοδοτήσετε).»
और हमने उसके बाद बनी इसराईल से कहा : तुम इस धरती में बस जाओ। फिर जब आख़िरत का वादा आएगा, तो हम तुम सबको ले आएँगे।
E abbiamo detto ai figli d’Israīl, dopo di lui: «Vivete in quella terra, ma se arriverà il termine dell’Aldilà, vi ci faremo giungere a schiere.»
104. Ir Mes tarėme Israelio (Izraelio) Vaikams po jo: „Gyvenkite žemėje, o tada, kai paskutinysis pažadas priartės, Mes surinksime jus visus kartu kaip maišytą būrį (surinktą iš įvairių tautų).
Nutis isa booda ilmaan Israa’iiliin ni jenne: “dachii (shaam) keessa jiraadhaa. Yeroo beellamni boodaa (Qiyaamaan) dhufe, haala walitti qabamoo taataniin hunda keessaniin dhufna [17]
А после него Мы сказали сынам Исраила: «Поселяйтесь на земле. Когда же настанет срок Последнего обещания, Мы соберём вас всех вместе [единым собранием]».
и после тога казасмо Израиљевим синовима: „Населите се по Земљи, па кад време Смака света наступи, све ћемо заједно да вас окупимо.“
Na tukawaambia baada yake Wana wa Israili, "Kaeni katika nchi. Na itakapokuja ahadi ya Akhera, tutawaleta nyote pamoja."
Därefter sa vi till israeliterna: ”Bosätt er på [Levantens] jord! Och när löftet om uppståndelsen blir verklighet ska vi samla er alla.”
Bunun ardından İsrailoğulları'na şöyle dedik: ''Bu topraklarda oturun, ahiret vaadi (kıyamet) gelince hepinizi toplayıp bir araya getireceğiz.''
اس کے بعد ہم نے بنی اسرائیل سے فرما دیا کہ اس سرزمین[1] پر تم رہو سہو۔ ہاں جب آخرت کا وعده آئے گا ہم تم سب کو سمیٹ اور لپیٹ کر لے آئیں گے.
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.

He said, "You know that none sent these down except the Lord of the heavens and the earth-eye openers; and I think that you, Pharaoh, are doomed."
He said: In truth thou knowest that none sent down these (portents) save the Lord of the heavens and the earth as proofs, and lo! (for my part) I deem thee lost, O Pharaoh
He said, 'Well didst thou know that none sent down these save the Lord of the heavens and the earth as visible signs; and, verily, I think thee, O Pharaoh! ruined
Said Moses, "Thou knowest that none hath sent down these clear signs but the Lord of the Heavens and of the Earth; and I surely deem thee, O Pharaoh, a person lost
Moses answered, thou well knowest that none hath sent down these evident signs except the Lord of heaven and earth; and I surely esteem thee, O Pharaoh, a lost man

The translators word this verse differently
A Quran which We unfolded gradually, that you may recite to the people over time. And We revealed it in stages.
And (it is) a Qur'an that We have divided, that thou mayst recite it unto mankind at intervals, and We have revealed it by (successive) revelation
And a Qur'an which we have divided, that thou mayst read it to mankind leisurely, and we sent it down, sending it down
And we have parcelled out the Koran into sections, that thou mightest recite it unto men by slow degrees, and we have sent it down piecemeal
And We have divided the Koran, revealing it by parcels, that thou mightest read it unto men with deliberation; and We have sent it down, causing it to descend as occasion required

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 — 0.49 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.
