But those who do not believe in the Hereafter are swerving from the path.

por ata që nuk besojnë në botën tjetër janë të shmangur nga rruga e drejtë.
আর নিশ্চয় যারা আখিরাতের প্রতি ঈমান আনে না, তারাই এই সরল-সঠিক পথ (ইসলাম) থেকে বিচ্যুত।
ali oni koji u onaj svijet neće da vjeruju s Pravog puta, doista, skreću.
ali oni koji u onaj svijet neće da vjeruju s Pravog puta, doista, skreću.
E pellet, ɓen ɓe mgooŋɗinaani Laakara on ko ɓe seluɓe e Laawol ngol.
ხოლო ისინი, რომელთაც არ სწამთ საიქიო, ამ გზისგან გადახრილნი არიან.
Und diejenigen, die nicht an das Jenseits glauben, weichen ja vom Weg ab.
Αλλά εκείνοι που δεν πιστεύουν στη Μέλλουσα Ζωή, παρεκκλίνουν απ' αυτόν τον (ίσιο) δρόμο (προς άλλους δρόμους που οδηγούν στη Φωτιά).
और निःसंदेह जो लोग आख़िरत पर ईमान नहीं रखते, निश्चय वे सीधे रास्ते से हटने वाले हैं।
E in verità quelli che non credono nell’Aldilà sono deviati dalla retta via.
74. Ir iš tiesų, tie, kurie netiki Amžinybę, yra tikrai toli nuklystantys nuo Kelio (tikrosios religijos - islamiškojo monoteizmo).
Isaan Aakhiraatti hin amanne karaa (qajeelaa) irraa jallatoodha.
И, воистину, те, которые не веруют в Последнюю жизнь, отклоняются от пути.
али они који у Будући свет неће да верују се од Правог пута, заиста, отуђују.
Na hakika wale wasioiamini Akhera wanajitenga mbali na njia hiyo.
Men de som inte tror på det kommande livet vänder sig bort från denna väg.
Muhakkak ki âhirete iman etmeyenler doğru yoldan sapanlardır.
بےشک جو لوگ آخرت پر یقین نہیں رکھتے وه سیدھے راستے سے مڑ جانے والے ہیں.[1]
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.

Or are you asking them for a payment? The revenue from your Lord is better, and He is the Best of providers.
Or dost thou ask of them (O Muhammad) any tribute? But the bounty of thy Lord is better, for He is Best of all who make provision
Or dost thou ask them for a tribute? but the tribute of thy Lord is better, for He is the best of those who provide
Dost thou ask them for remuneration? But, remuneration from thy Lord is best; and He is the best provider
Dost thou ask of them any maintenance for thy preaching? Since the maintenance of thy Lord is better; for He is the most bounteous provider

The translators word this verse differently
You are inviting them to a straight path.
And lo! thou summonest them indeed unto a straight path
And, verily, thou dost call them to a right way
And thou indeed biddest them to the right path
Thou certainly invitest them to the right way
23:74 — the verse above
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ

Even if We had mercy on them, and relieved their problems, they would still blindly persist in their defiance.
Though We had mercy on them and relieved them of the harm afflicting them, they still would wander blindly on in their contumacy
But if we had mercy on them, and removed the distress they have, they would persist in their rebellion, blindly wandering on
And if we had taken compassion on them, and relieved them from their trouble, they would have plunged on in their wickedness, wildly wandering
If we had had compassion on them, and had taken off from them the calamity which had befallen them, they would surely have more obstinately persisted in their error, wandering in confusion
وَلَقَدْ أَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْعَذَابِ فَمَا ٱسْتَكَانُوا۟ لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ

We have already gripped them with suffering, but they did not surrender to their Lord, nor did they humble themselves.
Already have We grasped them with punishment, but they humble not themselves unto their Lord, nor do they pray
And we caught them with the torment, but they did not abase themselves before their Lord, nor did they humble themselves
We formerly laid hold on them with chastisement, yet they did not humble them to their Lord, nor did they abase them
We formerly chastised them with a punishment: Yet they did not humble themselves before their Lord, neither did they make supplications unto Him

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 — 0.56 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.
