O robërit e Mi që keni besuar! Me të vërtetë, Toka Ime është e gjerë, andaj vetëm Mua adhuromëni!
হে আমার বান্দারা যারা ঈমান এনেছো, নিশ্চয় আমার জমিন প্রশস্ত(১১); সুতরাং তোমরা আমারই ইবাদাত করো।
O robovi Moji koji vjerujete, Moja je Zemlja prostrana, zato samo Meni ibadet činite!

O Meine Diener, die glauben, wahrlich, Meine Erde ist weit. So dient Mir, ja (nur) Mir.
Ω, δούλοι Μου που πιστεύετε! Πράγματι, η γη Μου είναι πλατιά (για να μεταναστέψετε αν αντιμετωπίζετε διωγμούς λόγω της πίστης σας), έτσι, λατρεύετε μόνο Εμένα!
ऐ मेरे बंदो जो ईमान लाए हो! निःसंदेह मेरी धरती विशाल है। अतः तुम मेरी ही इबादत[35] करो।
O servi Miei, credenti, in verità la Mia terra è vasta: adorateMi!

О Мои рабы, которые уверовали! Воистину, Моя земля обширна, так поклоняйтесь же только Мне.
О слуге Моје које верујете, Моја је Земља пространа, зато само Мене обожавајте!
Enyi waja wangu mlioamini! Kwa hakika ardhi yangu ina wasaa. Basi niabuduni Mimi peke yangu.
Mina troende tjänare! Min jord är rymlig; [utvandra till en plats där] ni kan dyrka mig [och endast mig].
Ey iman eden kullarım! Şüphesiz ki benim arzım (yeryüzü) geniştir. O halde, ancak bana ibadet edin.
اے میرے ایمان والے بندو! میری زمین بہت کشاده ہے سو تم میری ہی عبادت کرو.[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.

The translators word this verse differently
They urge you to hasten the punishment. But Hell will engulf the disbelievers.
They bid thee hasten on the doom, when lo! hell verily will encompass the disbelievers
They will wish thee to hurry on the torment, but, verily, hell encompasses the misbelievers
They will challenge thee to hasten the punishment: but verily Hell shall be round about the infidels
They urge thee to bring down vengeance swiftly upon them: But hell shall surely encompass the unbelievers

On the day when the torment shall cover them from above them and from beneath their feet, and He shall say, 'Taste that which ye have done
One day the punishment shall wrap them round, both from above them and from beneath their feet; and God will say, "Taste ye your own doings

The translators word this verse differently
Those who believe and work righteousness-We will settle them in Paradise, in mansions under which rivers flow, dwelling therein forever. Excellent is the compensation for the workers.
Those who believe and do good works, them verily We shall house in lofty dwellings of the Garden underneath which rivers flow. There they will dwell secure. How sweet the guerdon of the toilers
and those who believe and act aright, we will surely inform them of upper chambers in Paradise, beneath which rivers flow; to dwell therein for aye - pleasant is the hire of those who work
But those who shall have believed and wrought righteousness will we lodge in gardens with palaces, beneath which the rivers flow. For ever shall they abide therein. How goodly the reward of those who labour
and as for those who shall have believed, and wrought righteousness, We will surely lodge them in the higher apartments of paradise; rivers shall flow beneath them, and they shall continue therein for ever. How excellent will be the reward of the workers of righteousness

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.
