God made it but a message of hope for you, and to reassure your hearts thereby. Victory comes only from God the Almighty, the Wise.

Allahu e bëri këtë vetëm si përgëzim për ju dhe që zemrat tuaja të qetësohen, – ndërkohë fitorja vjen vetëm nga Allahu, i Gjithëfuqishmi, i Urti, –
আর আল্লাহ এ ব্যবস্থা করেছেন কেবল তোমাদের জন্য সুসংবাদস্বরূপ এবং যাতে তোমাদের অন্তরসমূহ এর দ্বারা প্রশান্তি লাভ করে। আর সাহায্য (ও সত্যিকার বিজয়) কেবল মহা পরাক্রমশালী প্রজ্ঞাময় আল্লাহর পক্ষ থেকেই হয়ে থাকে।(৬৯)
To je Allah učinio samo da vas obraduje i da se time srca vaša smire. A pomoći nema osim od Allaha, Silnog i Mudrog.

და ალლაჰმა ეს (ანგელოზებით დახმარება ბადრის ბრძოლაში) მხოლოდ იმისთვის დაადგინა, რომ ეს თქვენთვის სასიხარულო ამბავი ყოფილიყო და თქვენი გულები დამშვიდებულიყო. და არა არსებობს დახმარება, გარდა ალლაჰისგან, ძლევამოსილისა, ბრძენისა.
Und Allah machte es nur zu einer frohen Botschaft für euch, und damit eure Herzen dadurch Ruhe finden -, denn der Sieg kommt gewiss nur von Allah, dem Allmächtigen, dem Allweisen.
Ο Αλλάχ δεν έφτιαξε αυτή (την υποστήριξη με τους αγγέλους κατά τη μάχη του Μπαντρ) παρά ως χαρμόσυνα νέα για σας και για να καθησυχάσουν οι καρδιές σας μ' αυτή. Και πράγματι, η νίκη δεν προέρχεται παρά μόνο από τον Αλλάχ, τον Αλ-‘Αζείζ (Παντοδύναμος, Ανίκητος), τον Αλ-Χακείμ (Πάνσοφος).
और अल्लाह ने इस (मदद) को तुम्हारे लिए केवल शुभ सूचना बनाया है और ताकि तुम्हारे दिल उससे संतुष्ट हो जाएँ और सहायता तो केवल अल्लाह ही के पास से आती है, जो प्रभुत्वशाली, हिकमत वाला (तत्वदर्शी) है।
E Allāh lo fece come buon annuncio, perché si tranquillizzassero i vostri cuori. E la vittoria non viene se non da Allāh, il Potente, il Saggio –
126. Allahas padarė tai tik gera žinia jums ir kaip patikinimą jūsų širdims. Ir nėra pergalės išskyrus iš Allaho, Visagalio, Visa Išmanančio.

Аллах сделал это не иначе как благой вестью для вас, и чтобы ваши сердца обрели покой благодаря этому. А победа — не иначе как от Аллаха, Могущественного, Мудрого.
То је Аллах учинио само да вас обрадује и да се тиме ваша срца смире. А помоћи нема осим од Аллаха, Силног и Мудрог.
Na Mwenyezi Mungu hakufanya haya isipokuwa iwe ni bishara kwenu, na ili nyoyo zenu zipate kutua kwa hilo. Na nusura haitoki isipokuwa kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, Mwenye Nguvu, Mwenye hekima.
Gud gjorde detta endast till ett glädjande besked för er, så att era hjärtan skulle finna ro genom det. Men segern kommer i verkligheten enbart från Gud, den Allsmäktige, den Vise.
Allah, bu yardımı size sadece müjde olması ve kalplerinizin bununla yatışması için yaptı. Zafer, ancak Aziz ve Hakim olan Allah katındandır.
اور یہ تو محض تمہارے دل کی خوشی اور اطمینان قلب کے لئے ہے، ورنہ مدد تو اللہ ہی کی طرف سے ہے جو غالب اور حکمتوں 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.

The translators word this verse differently
He thus cuts off a section of those who disbelieved, or subdues them, so they retreat disappointed.
That He may cut off a part of those who disbelieve, or overwhelm them so that they retire, frustrated
to cut off the flank of those who misbelieve, or make them downcast, that they may retire disappointed
and that He might cut off the uttermost part of those who believed not, or cast them down so that they should be overthrown, defeated without resource
That he should cut off the uttermost part of the unbelievers, or cast them down, or that they should be overthrown and unsuccessful, is nothing to thee
لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ شَىْءٌ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَوْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ ظَٰلِمُونَ

The translators word this verse differently
It is no concern of yours whether He redeems them or punishes them. They are wrongdoers.
It is no concern at all of thee (Muhammad) whether He relent toward them or punish them; for they are evil-doers
Thou hast nothing to do with the affair at all, whether He turn towards them again or punish them; for, verily, they are unjust
It is none of thy concern whether He be turned unto them in kindness or chastise them: for verily they are wrongful doers
It is no business of thine; whether God be turned unto them, or whether he punish them; they are surely unjust doers

In plain words — none yet for this verse
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.
