That is some of the wisdom your Lord has revealed to you. Do not set up with God another god, or else you will be thrown in Hell, rebuked and banished.

(হে রাসূল!) তোমার রব তোমার নিকট ওয়াহীর মাধ্যমে যে-সব হিকমত (আদেশ, নিষেধ ও বিধানাবলি) পাঠিয়েছেন, এগুলো তার অন্তর্ভুক্ত। আর (হে মানুষ!) তুমি আল্লাহর সাথে অন্য কোনো উপাস্য নির্ধারণ করো না, (যদি নির্ধারণ কর,) তাহলে তুমি নিন্দিত ও বিতাড়িত হয়ে জাহান্নামে নিক্ষিপ্ত হবে।
To je mudrost koju ti Gospodar tvoj objavljuje. I ne dodaji Allahu drugog boga da ne bi u Džehennem bio bačen, prekoren i od milosti Njegove udaljen.

ეს არის ზეშთაგონება, რაც ზეშთაგეგონა შენი ღმერთისგან [ო, შუამავალო] და ნუ დაიდგენ ალლაჰთან ერთად სხვა ღვთაებას, თორემ ჩაგდებულ იქნები ჯოჯოხეთში განკიცხული და დამცირებული.
Dies ist etwas von dem, was dir dein Herr an Weisheit (als Offenbarung) eingegeben hat. Und setze Allah keinen anderen Angebeteten zur Seite, sonst wirst du in die Hölle geworfen, getadelt und verstoßen.
Αυτές (οι προαναφερόμενες εντολές και απαγορεύσεις) είναι ένα μέρος της σοφίας που σου έχει αποκαλύψει ο Κύριός σου (ω, Μωχάμμαντ). Μην θέτεις λοιπόν κανέναν άλλον θεό μαζί με τον Αλλάχ, διαφορετικά θα ριχτείς στην Κόλαση, κατηγορούμενος και διωγμένος (από το έλεος του Αλλάχ).
ये हिकमत की वे बातें हैं, जिनकी आपके पालनहार ने आपकी ओर वह़्य (प्रकाशना) की है। और अल्लाह के साथ कोई दूसरा पूज्य न बनाओ। अन्यथा तुम निंदित, धुत्कारे हुए जहन्नम में फेंक दिए जाओगे।
Quello fa parte delle cose sagge che ti ha ispirato il tuo Dio, e non paragonare ad Allāh un’altra divinità, perché sarai gettato nell’Inferno, rimproverato e allontanato.
39. Tai (dalis) Al-Hikma (išmintis, geros manieros ir charakteris), kurį tavo Viešpats apreiškė tau ( Muchammedai ﷺ). Ir nepriskirk Allahui jokio kito ilah (dievo), kad nebūtum įmestas į Pragarą smerkiamas ir atstumtas (nuo Allaho Gailestingumo).

Это — из того, что твой Господь внушил тебе из мудрости. И не устанавливай вместе с Аллахом другого бога, иначе будешь ввергнут в Геенну, порицаемым, отверженным.
То је мудрост коју ти твој Господар објављује. И не сматрај да поред Аллаха постоји друго божанство, да не би био бачен у Пакао, понижен и од милости одбачен.
Hayo ni katika hekima alizokufunulia Mola wako Mlezi. Wala usimweke pamoja na Mwenyezi Mungu mungu mwengine, ukaja ukatupwa katika Jahannamu ukilaumiwa na kufurushwa.
Dessa [bestämmelser] är en del av den visdom som din Herre har uppenbarat för dig. Dyrka därför inte någon vid sidan av Gud, för då kommer du att kastas i helvetet, föraktad och bortstött.
İşte bu, Rabbinin sana hikmet olarak vahyettiği şeylerdir. Allah ile birlikte bir başka ilah edinme! Yoksa, kınanmış ve kovulmuş olarak Cehennem'e atılırsın.
یہ بھی منجملہ اس وحی کے ہے جو تیری جانب تیرے رب نے حکمت سے اتاری ہے تو اللہ کے ساتھ کسی اور کو معبود نہ بنانا کہ ملامت خورده اور راندہٴ درگاه ہو کر دوزخ میں ڈال دیا جائے.
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
We have explained in this Quran in various ways, that they may remember, but it only adds to their rebellion.
We verily have displayed (Our warnings) in this Qur'an that they may take heed, but it increaseth them in naught save aversion
Now have we turned it in various ways in this Qur'an, so let them bear in mind; but it will only increase them in aversion
Moreover, for man's warning have we varied this Koran: Yet it only increaseth their flight from it
And now have we used various arguments and repetitions in this Koran, that they may be warned; yet it only rendereth them more disposed to fly from the truth

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 — 0.61 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.
