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.
And Job, when he cried out to his Lord: "Great harm has afflicted me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful."

(Kujto) Ejubin, kur i thirri Zotit të tij: "Mua më ka goditur fatkeqësia e Ti je më i mëshirshmi i mëshiruesve."
আর (হে রাসূল! তুমি) স্মরণ করো আইউবের কথা, যখন (তার ওপর বিপদ নেমে আসলে) সে তার রবকে ডেকে বলেছিল: ‘(হে আমার রব!) আমি রোগাক্রান্ত (এবং পরিবারহারা) হয়ে গেছি। আর আপনি তো সর্বশ্রেষ্ঠ দয়ালু।’
I Ejjuba, kada je Gospodaru svome zavapio: “Mene je nevolja snašla, a Ti si najmilostiviji.”
I Joba, kada je Gospodaru svome zavapio: “Mene je nevolja snašla, a Ti si najmilostiviji.”
[Jaŋto kadi fii] Ayyuuba tuma nde o noddunoo Joomi makko, [O maaki:] "Min dey memii kam lorra kan, ko aan woni ɓuroowo Yurmeede yurmtooɓe ɓen".
და [გაიხსენე] [ო, შუამავალო] [შუამავალი] აიუბი, რომელმაც მოუხმო თავის უფალს: «უეჭველად, მე მეწია უბედურება და შენა ხარ [ო, ალლაჰ] მოწყალეთაგან უმოწყალესი».
Und (gedenke auch) Ayyubs, als er zu seinem Herrn rief: „Mich hat ja Schaden getroffen, doch Du bist der Barmherzigste der Barmherzigen.“
(Ανάφερε, ω, Προφήτη) και τον Ιώβ, όταν επικαλέστηκε τον Κύριό του: «Με χτύπησαν οι αντιξοότητες (η αρρώστια, και έχασα τον πλούτο και την οικογένειά μου), (σώσε με λοιπόν απ' αυτές) και πράγματι, Εσύ είσαι ο πιο Ελεήμων από τους ελεήμονες.»
तथा अय्यूब (की कहानी) को (याद करो), जब उन्होंने अपने पालनहार को पुकारा कि निःसंदेह मुझे कष्ट पहुँची है और तू दया करने वालों में सबसे अधिक दयावान् है।
E Eyyūb, quando supplicò il suo Dio: «In verità mi ha colpito una disgrazia e sei Tu il più Misericordioso dei misericordiosi!»
83. Ir (atminkite) Ajūbą (Jobą), kai jis šaukėsi savo Viešpaties: „Iš tiesų, sielvartas apėmė mane, ir Tu esi Gailestingiausias iš tų, kurie rodo gailestingumą.“
Ayyuubiin (yaadadhu) ‘yeroo inni Gooftaa isaatti lallabee “ani rakkoon na tuqeera; Ati irra rahmata godhaa warra rahmata godhaniiti” (jedhu) [17]
И Айюба, когда он воззвал к своему Господу: «Меня постигло бедствие, а Ты — Милостивейший из милующих!»
И спомени Јова, када је своме Господару завапио: „Мене је снашла невоља, а Ти си од милостивих најмилостивији.“
Na Ayyubu, alipomwita Mola wake Mlezi, akasema: Mimi yamenipata madhara. Na Wewe ndiye unayerehemu kuliko wote wanaorehemu.
Minns även Job, när han vädjade till sin Herre: ”Plågor har drabbat mig, och av alla som visar barmhärtighet är du den barmhärtigaste.”
Eyyûb’u da an. Hani o Rabbine: “Şüphesiz ki ben derde uğradım, sen ise merhametlilerin en merhametlisisin” diye niyaz etmişti.
ایوب (علیہ السلام) کی اس حالت کو یاد کرو جبکہ اس نے اپنے پروردگار کو پکارا کہ مجھے یہ بیماری لگ گئی ہے اور تو رحم کرنے والوں سے زیاده رحم کرنے واﻻ 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.

And of the devils were some that dived for him, and performed other, lesser tasks. But We kept them restrained.
And of the evil ones (subdued We unto him) some who dived (for pearls) for him and did other work, and We were warders unto them
and some devils to dive for him, and to do other works beside that; and we kept guard over them
And sundry Satans who should dive for him and perform other work beside: and we kept watch over them
And We also subjected unto his command divers of the devils, who might dive to get pearls for him, and perform other work besides this; and We watched over them

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 — 0.51 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.
