Allahu nuk ju merr në llogari për betimet tuaja të paqëllimshme, por për ato që i bëni me zemër (qëllimisht). Allahu është Falës i Madh e i Butë.
তোমাদের অনর্থক শপথের জন্যে আল্লাহ তোমাদেরকে পাকড়াও করবেন না;(৫৭) কিন্তু তিনি সেসব শপথের ব্যাপারে পাকড়াও করবেন, যেগুলোর ব্যাপারে তোমাদের অন্তরসমূহ সংকল্পবদ্ধ ছিল। আর আল্লাহ অতি ক্ষমাশীল, পরম ধৈর্যশীল।
Allah vas neće kazniti ako se neoprezno zakunete, ali će vas kazniti za ono što s predumišljajem srca vaših uradite. Allah je Onaj Koji oprašta grijehe i Onaj Koji ne žuri s kaznom.

არ მოგთხოვთ პასუხს ალლაჰი ფუჭსიტყვაობისთვის თქვენს ფიცებში [უნებლიედ წარმოთქმული ფიცისთვის], მაგრამ მოგთხოვთ პასუხს იმისთვის, რაც თქვენმა გულებმა შეიძინეს [თქვენი განზრახვებისთვის]. და ალლაჰი — შემნდობი, შემწყნარებელია.
Allah belangt euch nicht für etwas Unbedachtes in euren Eiden. Jedoch belangt Er euch für das, was eure Herzen erworben haben. Und Allah ist allvergebend und nachsichtig.
Ο Αλλάχ δε θα σας καταδικάσει για τους όρκους που είπατε χωρίς να είχατε σκοπό τον όρκο, μα θα σας καταδικάσει γι’ αυτό που σκόπευαν οι καρδιές σας (από σκόπιμους όρκους αν τους αθετήσετε). Και ο Αλλάχ είναι Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Χαλείμ (Μακρόθυμος).
अल्लाह तुम्हें तुम्हारी क़समों में निरर्थक पर नहीं पकड़ता, बल्कि तुम्हें उसपर पकड़ता है, जिसका तुम्हारे दिलों ने इरादा किया है। और अल्लाह बहुत क्षमा करने वाला, अत्यंत सहनशील है।
Allāh non vi punisce per inezie nei vostri giuramenti, ma per quello che sentono i vostri cuori. E Allāh è Perdonatore, Benevolo.
225. Allahas nekvies jūsų atsiskaityti už tai, kas buvo netyčia jūsų priesaikose. Tačiau jis kvies jus atsiskaityti už tai, ko troško jūsų širdys. Ir Allahas yra Dažnai Atleidžiantis, Pakančiausiasis.
Rabbiin kakuu keessan kan dogoggoraatiif isin hinqabu. Garuu waan onneenneewan keessan hojjataniif isin qaba. Rabbiin araaramaa, obsaadha. [88]
Аллах не взыскивает с вас за пустословие в ваших клятвах, но взыскивает с вас за то, что обрели ваши сердца. Аллах — прощающий, сдержанный.
Аллах неће да вас казни ако се неопрезно закунете, али ће да вас казни за оно што с предумишљајем срца ваших урадите. Аллах опрашта грехе и не жури с казном.
Mwenyezi Mungu hawachukulii ubaya katika viapo vyenu ambavyo hamkuvikusudia. Lakini anawachukulia ubaya kwa yale ambayo nyoyo zenu zinachuma. Na Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kusamehe, Mpole.
Gud ställer er inte till svars för era oavsiktliga eder, men han ställer er till svars för det som era hjärtan avsiktligt har avsett. Gud är ständigt förlåtande, fördragsam.
Allah sizi, kasıtsız olarak yaptığınız yeminlerden dolayı sorumlu tutmaz. Lâkin kalplerinizin kasıtlı yaptığı yeminlerden dolayı sizi sorumlu tutar. Allah çok bağışlayandır, çok şefkat ve merhamet edendir.
اللہ تعالیٰ تمہیں تمہاری ان قسموں پر نہ پکڑے گا جو پختہ نہ ہوں[1] ہاں اس کی پکڑ اس چیز پر ہے جو تمہارے دلوں کا فعل ہو، اللہ تعالیٰ بخشنے واﻻ اور بردبار ہے۔
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.

Your women are a tilth for you (to cultivate) so go to your tilth as ye will, and send (good deeds) before you for your souls, and fear Allah, and know that ye will (one day) meet Him. Give glad tidings to believers, (O Muhammad)

The translators word this verse differently
And do not allow your oaths in God's name to hinder you from virtue, and righteousness, and making peace between people. God is Listener and Knower.
And make not Allah, by your oaths, a hindrance to your being righteous and observing your duty unto Him and making peace among mankind. Allah is Hearer, Knower
Make not God the butt of your oaths, that ye will keep clear and fear and make peace amongst men, for God both hears and knows
Swear not by God, when ye make oath, that ye will be virtuous and fear God, and promote peace among men; for God is He who Heareth, Knoweth
Make not God the object of your oaths, that ye will deal justly, and be devout, and make peace among men; for God is he who heareth and knoweth

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 — 0.57 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.
