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.
Whoever commits evil, or wrongs his soul, then implores God for forgiveness, will find God Forgiving and Merciful.

Kushdo që bën ndonjë vepër të keqe ose i bën padrejtësi vetvetes, pastaj i kërkon falje Allahut, do ta gjejë Allahun Falës të Madh e Mëshirëplotë.
আর যে ব্যক্তি কোন মন্দ কাজ করে অথবা নিজের প্রতি যুলম করে, অতঃপর আল্লাহর কাছে ক্ষমা প্রার্থনা করলে আল্লাহকে সে অতি ক্ষমাশীল, পরম দয়ালু পাবে।
Ko učini kakvo zlo, ili prema sebi nepravdu učini, a zatim Allaha moli da mu oprosti, naći će da je Allah Onaj Koji oprašta grijehe i da je milostiv.
Tko učini kakvo zlo, ili prema sebi nepravdu učini, a zatim Allaha moli da mu oprosti, naći će da Allah je Onaj Koji oprašta grijehe i milostiv je.
Kalo golluɗo bone maa o tooñi hoore makko, refti o imsinii e Alla, o tawat Alla ko jaafotooɗo, jurmotooɗo.
და ვინც ცუდს ჩაიდენს [შირქს ან ურწმუნოებას] ან საკუთარ თავს დაჩაგრავს [ჩაიდენს ცოდვას, რომელიც ნაკლებია შირქსა და ურწმუნოებაზე], შემდეგ კი სთხოვს პატიებას ალლაჰს, ის ჰპოვებს ალლაჰს მპატიებელს, შემწყალებელს.
Und wer etwas Schlechtes tut oder sich selbst Unrecht zufügt und hierauf Allah um Vergebung bittet, der wird Allah allvergebend und barmherzig (vor)finden.
Όποιος κάνει κάτι κακό ή αδικεί τον εαυτό του (μέσω αμαρτιών) και έπειτα ζητά συγχώρεση από τον Αλλάχ, θα βρει τον Αλλάχ Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Ραχείμ (Πολυεύσπλαχνος).
जो व्यक्ति कोई बुरा काम करे अथवा अपने ऊपर अत्याचार करे, फिर अल्लाह से क्षमा माँगे, तो वह अल्लाह को बहुत क्षमा करने वाला, अत्यंत दयावान् पाएगा।
E chi compie un’opera malvagia, oppure fa torto a se stesso, poi implorerà il perdono di Allāh, troverà Allāh Perdonatore, Misericordioso.
110. O kas elgiasi blogai ir skriaudžia save, tačiau po to prašo Allaho Atleidimo, jis supras, kad Allahas yra Dažnai Atleidžiantis, Gailestingiausiasis.
Namni hamtuu hojjatee yookiin lubbuu isaa miidhee ergasii Rabbiin araarama kadhate, Rabbiin araaramaa, rahmata godhaa ta’uu arga.
Кто совершит дурное или поступит несправедливо с самим собой, а затем попросит у Аллаха прощения, — тот найдёт Аллаха прощающим, милующим.
Ко учини какво зло, или према себи учини неправду, а затим Аллаха замоли да му опрости, наћи ће да Аллах опрашта грехе и милостив је.
Na anayetenda uovu au akaidhulumu nafsi yake, kisha akaomba kufutiwa dhambi kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, atamkuta Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwingi wa kufuta dhambi, Mwenye kurehemu.
Den som gör en dålig handling eller gör orätt mot sig själv och sedan ber Gud om förlåtelse, ska finna att Gud är ständigt förlåtande, barmhärtig.
Kim bir kötülük işler veya kendi nefsine zulmeder de ardından Allah’tan bağışlanma dilerse, Allah’ı çokça bağışlayıcı ve merhamet eden olarak bulur.
جو شخص کوئی برائی کرے یا اپنی جان پر ﻇلم کرے پھر اللہ سے استغفار کرے تو وه اللہ کو بخشنے واﻻ، مہربانی کرنے واﻻ پائے گا۔
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.
shown so it's never read alone

They hide from the people, but they cannot hide from God. He is with them, as they plot by night with words He does not approve. God comprehends what they do.
They seek to hide from men and seek not to hide from Allah. He is with them when by night they hold discourse displeasing unto Him. Allah ever surroundeth what they do
They hide themselves from men; but they cannot hide themselves from God, for He is with them while they brood at night over speeches that please Him not;- but God doth compass what they do
From men they hide themselves; but they cannot hide themselves from God: and when they hold nightly discourses which please Him not, He is with them. God is round about their doings
Such conceal themselves from men, but they conceal not themselves from God; for He is with them when they imagine by night a saying which pleaseth Him not, and God comprehendeth what they do

There you are, arguing on their behalf in the present life, but who will argue with God on their behalf on the Day of Resurrection? Or who will be their representative?

وَمَن يَكْسِبْ إِثْمًا فَإِنَّمَا يَكْسِبُهُۥ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا

The translators word this verse differently
And whoever commits a mistake, or a sin, and then blames it on an innocent person, has taken a slander and a clear sin.
And whoso committeth a delinquency or crime, then throweth (the blame) thereof upon the innocent, hath burdened himself with falsehood and a flagrant crime
And whoso commits a fault or a sin and throws it on the innocent, he hath to bear a calumny and a manifest sin
And whoever committeth an involuntary fault or a crime, and then layeth it on the innocent, shall surely bear the guilt of calumny and of a manifest crime
And whoso committeth a sin or iniquity, and afterwards layeth it on the innocent, he shall surely bear the guilt of calumny and manifest injustice

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 — 0.63 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.
