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.
God increases in guidance those who accept guidance. And the things that endure-the righteous deeds-have the best reward with your Lord, and the best outcome.

Allahu ua shton udhëzimin atyre që janë të udhëzuar. Veprat e mira, të cilat mbesin, janë më të mira te Zoti yt si shpërblim dhe më të mira si përfundim.
আর যারা হিদায়াতের পথে চলে, আল্লাহ তাদের হিদায়াত বাড়িয়ে দিবেন। আর স্থায়ী সৎকর্মসমূহ তোমার রবের কাছে পুরস্কার প্রাপ্তির দিক দিয়ে শ্রেষ্ঠ এবং পরিণতি হিসেবেও অতি উত্তম।
Allah će povećati uputu onima koji su na Pravom putu! A dobra djela, koja vječno ostaju – od Gospodara tvoga bit će bolje nagrađena i ljepše uzvraćena.
Allah će povećati uputu onima koji su na Pravom putu! A dobra djela, koja vječno ostaju – od Gospodara tvoga bit će bolje nagrađena i ljepše uzvraćena.

და ალლაჰი კიდევ უფრო უმრავლებს სწორ გზაზე მყოფთ ხელმძღვანელობას და სიმტკიცეს ამ გზაზე. ხოლო მარადიული კეთილი საქმეები, რომლებიც რჩება (ადამიანისათვის), შენი უფლის წინაშე უკეთესია ჯილდოთი და უკეთესია საზღაურით.
Und Allah mehrt denjenigen, die rechtgeleitet sind, ihre Rechtleitung. Das Bleibende aber, die rechtschaffenen Werke - sie sind bei deinem Herrn besser in der Belohnung und besser als Rückkehr.
Ο Αλλάχ αυξάνει εκείνους που καθοδηγηθήκαν, σε περισσότερη καθοδήγηση (και πίστη και υπακοή). Και οι ενάρετες πράξεις που θα μείνουν (δηλ. που θα μείνουν οι ανταμοιβές τους στη Μέλλουσα Ζωή), έχουν τις καλύτερες ανταμοιβές από τον Κύριό σου (από οποιονδήποτε πλούτο στην εγκόσμια ζωή), και έχουν τις καλύτερες συνέπειες (για τους πιστούς).
और अल्लाह हिदायत पाने वालों को हिदायत में आधिक कर देता है और शेष रहने वाली नेकियाँ आपके पालनहार के निकट सवाब की दृष्टि से बेहतर तथा परिणाम की दृष्टि से कहीं अच्छी हैं।
E Allāh aumenta la rettitudine a chi è sulla retta via, e le azioni buone sono migliori presso il tuo Dio, e di migliore ricompensa e di migliore ritorno.
76. Ir Allahas padidina teisingą vedimą tiems, kurie eina teisingai. [5] Ir teisingi geri darbai, kurie tęsiasi, yra geriau jūsų Viešpačiui, dėl atlygio ir geriau dėl išsigelbėjimo.
Rabbiin warra qajeelaniif qajeeluma dabala, Hojiiwwan gaggaarii haftuu taateetu Rabbii kee biratti mindaadhaan caalaadha; deebiidhaanis isatu (irra) caalaadha.
Аллах приумножает руководство тем, которые последовали верным путём. А нетленные праведные деяния — лучше у твоего Господа по награде и лучше по исходу.
А Аллах ће помоћи онима који су на Правом путу! А добра дела која вечно остају – од Господара твог биће боље награђена и лепше узвраћена.
Na Mwenyezi Mungu huwazidishia wale walioongoka uongofu. Na mema yenye kubakia ni bora katika malipo mbele ya Mola wako Mlezi na yana marejeo mema.
De som följer sanningens väg ska Gud ge ytterligare ledning. Och de bestående goda handlingarna ger en överlägsen belöning hos din Herre och leder till ett bättre utfall.
Allah hidayete erenlerin hidayetini arttırır. Kalıcı olan salih ameller ise sevap bakımından da Rabbin yanında hayırlıdır, âkıbetçe de daha hayırlıdır.
اور ہدایت یافتہ لوگوں کو اللہ تعالیٰ ہدایت میں بڑھاتا ہے[1] ، اور باقی رہنے والی نیکیاں تیرے رب کے نزدیک ﺛواب کے لحاظ سے اور انجام کے لحاظ سے بہت ہی بہتر ہیں.[2]
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.

Say, "Whoever is in error, the Most Merciful will lead him on." Until, when they see what they were promised-either the punishment, or the Hour. Then they will know who was in worse position and weaker in forces.
Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or the Hour (of doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army
Say, 'Whosoever is in error, let the Merciful extend to him length of days!- until they see what they are threatened with, whether it be the torment or whether it be the Hour, then they shall know who is worse placed and weakest in forces
SAY: As to those who are in error, the God of Mercy will lengthen out to them a length of days Until they see that with which they are threatened, whether it be some present chastisement, or whether it be "the Hour," and they shall then know which is in the worse state, and which the more weak in forces
Say, whosoever is in error, the Merciful will grant him a long and prosperous life; until they see that with which they are threatened, whether it be the punishment of this life, or that of the last hour; and hereafter they shall know who is in the worse condition, and the weaker in forces

Did he look into the future, or did he receive a promise from the Most Merciful?
Hath he perused the Unseen, or hath he made a pact with the Beneficent
Has he become acquainted with the unseen, or has he taken a compact with the Merciful
Hath he mounted up into the secrets of God? Hath he made a compact with the God of Mercy
Is he acquainted with the secrets of futurity; or hath he received a covenant from the Merciful that it shall be so

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 — 0.73 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.
