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.
So We seized him, and his troops, and We threw them into the sea. Observe, therefore, what was the end of the oppressors.

Prandaj, Ne e kapëm atë e ushtrinë e tij dhe i hodhëm në det. Shih pra si ishte fundi i zullumqarëve!
অতঃপর আমি তাকে ও তার সেনাবাহিনীকে পাকড়াও করলাম, তারপর তাদেরকে সমুদ্রে নিক্ষেপ করলাম। অতএব, (হে রাসূল!) দেখো যালিমদের পরিণাম কিরূপ হয়েছিলো?
pa Mi dohvatismo i njega i vojske njegove i u more ih bacismo; pogledaj kako su skončali oni koji su nepravedni bili!

შევიპყარით ის [ფარაონი] და მისი ჯარი, და ჩავყარეთ ისინი ზღვაში და შეხედე, როგორი იყო უსამართლოთა აღსასრული.
Da ergriffen Wir ihn und seine Heerscharen und warfen sie dann in das große Gewässer. So schau, wie das Ende der Ungerechten war.
Έτσι τιμωρήσαμε αυτόν (τον Φαραώ) και τους στρατιώτες του και τους πετάξαμε (και τους πνίξαμε) στο νερό. Κοίτα λοιπόν (ω, Προφήτη) πώς ήταν το τέλος των άδικων!
तो हमने उसे और उसकी सेनाओं को पकड़ लिया, फिर उन्हें समुद्र में फेंक दिया। तो देखो कि अत्याचारियों का अंत (परिणाम) कैसा था।
Così lo punimmo con le sue truppe, gettandoli in acqua. Osserva quale fu la fine degli ingiusti!

И Мы схватили его и его войска и бросили их в море. Так посмотри же, каков был итог несправедливых!
Па ми дохватисмо и њега и његове војске и у море их бацисмо; погледај како су скончали неверници!
Basi tukamshika yeye na majeshi yake, na tukawatupa baharini. Basi hebu angalia ulikuwaje mwisho wa wenye kudhulumu?
Så vi grep honom och hans trupper och kastade dem i havet. Se hur slutet blev för de orättfärdiga!
Bu sebeple biz de onu ve askerlerini yakalayıp denize atıverdik. Zalimlerin sonunun nasıl olduğuna bir bak.
بالﺂخر ہم نے اسے اور اس کے لشکروں کو پکڑ لیا اور دریا برد کر دیا[1] ، اب دیکھ لے کہ ان گنہگاروں کا انجام کیسا کچھ ہوا؟
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.

Pharaoh said, "O nobles, I know of no god for you other than me. So fire-up the bricks for me O Hamaan, and build me a tower, that I may ascend to the God of Moses, though I think he is a liar."
And Pharaoh said: O chiefs! I know not that ye have a god other than me, so kindle for me (a fire), O Haman, to bake the mud; and set up for me a lofty tower in order that I may survey the god of Moses; and lo! I deem him of the liars
And Pharaoh said, 'O ye chiefs! I do not know any god for you except me; then set fire, O Haman! to some clay and make for me a tower, haply I may mount up to the God of Moses; for, verity, I think he is of those who lie
And Pharaoh said, "O ye nobles, ye have no other God that I know of but myself. Burn me then, Haman, bricks of clay, and build me a tower that I may mount up to the God of Moses, for in sooth, I deem him a liar
And Pharaoh said, O princes, I did not know that ye had any other god besides me. Wherefore do thou, O Haman, burn me clay into bricks; and build me a high tower, that I may ascend unto the God of Moses: For I verily believe him to be a liar

He and his troops acted arrogantly in the land, with no justification. They thought they would not be returned to Us.
And he and his hosts were haughty in the land without right, and deemed that they would never be brought back to Us
And he grew big with pride, he and his armies in the land, without right; and they thought that they to us should not return
And he and his hosts behaved themselves proudly and unjustly on the earth, and thought that they should never be brought back to us
And both he and his forces behaved themselves insolently and unjustly in the earth; and imagined that they should not be brought before Us to be judged

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 — 0.58 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.
