Have you not considered those who claim purity for themselves? Rather, God purifies whom He wills, and they will not be wronged a whit.

A nuk i ke parë ata që e mbajnë veten për të dëlirë?! Në të vërtetë, Allahu dëlir kë të dëshirojë dhe askujt nuk do t'i bëhet padrejtësi asnjë fije.
(হে নবী!) তুমি কি তাদেরকে দেখোনি, যারা নিজেদের নফসের (ও কর্মের) পরিশুদ্ধতার প্রশংসা করে? বরং একমাত্র আল্লাহই (তাঁর বান্দাদের) যাদেরকে চান, (তাদের প্রশংসা করেন এবং) তাদেরকে পবিত্র করেন। আর তাদেরকে সুতা (বিন্দু) পরিমাণও(২৩) যুলম করা হবে না।
Zar ne vidiš one koji sebe smatraju od grijeha čistim?! Međutim, Allah čisti od grijeha koga hoće i nikome se neće, ni koliko nit na hurminoj košpici, nepravda učiniti.

ნუთუ შენ (ო, მოციქულო) არ გინახავს ისინი, რომლებიც საკუთარ თავს ამართლებენ [ამბობენ, რომ მათზე ცოდვა არ არის]? პირიქით! ალლაჰი წმენდს (ცოდვებისგან) იმას, ვისაც ისურვებს, და მათ არ მოექცევიან უსამართლოდ, თუნდაც ძაფის ოდენობაზეც კი (ფინიკის კურკაზე არსებულ თხელ ძაფზე)!
Hast du nicht jene gesehen, die sich selbst für lauter erklären? Vielmehr läutert Allah, wen Er will. Und ihnen wird nicht um ein Fädchen Unrecht zugefügt.
Δεν έχεις δει (ω, Προφήτη) εκείνους (τους Εβραίους και τους Χριστιανούς) που επαινούν τον εαυτό τους (και τις πράξεις τους, και ισχυρίζονται ότι είναι απαλλαγμένοι από τις αμαρτίες, ότι είναι οι γιοι του Αλλάχ και οι αγαπητοί Του και ότι κανείς δεν θα εισέλθει στον Παράδεισο παρά μόνο αυτοί); (Δεν ισχύει αυτό που ισχυρίστηκαν), μα ο Αλλάχ εξαγνίζει όποιον θέλει (από τις αμαρτίες και επαινεί όποιον θέλει και τις πράξεις του, αφού ο Αλλάχ ξέρει την πραγματικότητα όλων των πράξεων). Και δεν θα αδικηθούν ούτε στο μέγεθος ενός νήματος του κουκουτσιού ενός χουρμά.
क्या आपने उन्हें नहीं देखा, जो अपने आपको पवित्र कहते हैं? बल्कि अल्लाह ही जिसे चाहे, पवित्र बनाता है और उन पर एक धागे के बराबर भी अत्याचार नहीं किया जाएगा।
Non vedi quelli che si dichiaravano puri? Ma è Allāh che purifica chi Lui vuole, e non verrà fatto loro alcun torto.
49. Argi jūs nematėte tų (judėjų ir krikščionių), kurie tvirtina savo neliečiamumą? Ne, tik Allahas apvalo tuos, ką Jis nori, ir niekaip nesumažins atlygio už jų veiksmus, net per žvyniuotą siūlą ilgame datulės kauliuko įpjovime.
Sila gara isaan lubbuulee isaanii qulqulleessanii hin ilaallee? Lakki; Rabbiin nama fedhe (qofa) qulqulleessa. Hanga kirrii qola Timiraa hin miidhamanu.
Неужели ты не видишь тех, которые восхваляют самих себя? Нет, напротив, Аллах восхваляет, кого пожелает, и с ними не поступят несправедливо даже на нить финиковой косточки.
Зар не видиш оне који себе сматрају чистим од греха?! Међутим, Аллах чисти од греха кога хоће и никоме неће, ни колико трун неправде да се учини.
Je, hukuwaona wale wanaojitakasa nafsi zao? Bali Mwenyezi Mungu humtakasa amtakaye. Na hawatadhulumiwa hata kiasi cha kijiuzi kilicho ndani ya uwazi wa kokwa ya tende.
Har du inte sett de som hävdar att de är rättfärdiga? Nej, det är Gud som förklarar rättfärdig den han vill, och de ska inte tillfogas minsta orätt – inte ens så mycket som tråden i en dadelkärnas fåra.
Kendilerini temize çıkaranları görmedin mi? Allah dilediğini temize çıkarır ve hurma çekirdeğinin üzerindeki ince iplik/lif kadar bile zulme uğratılmazlar.
کیا آپ نے انہیں نہیں دیکھا جو اپنی پاکیزگی اور ستائش خود کرتے ہیں؟ بلکہ اللہ تعالیٰ جسے چاہے پاکیزه کرتا ہے، کسی پر ایک دھاگے کے برابر ﻇلم نہ کیا جائے گا۔[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.
shown so it's never read alone

The translators word this verse differently
God does not forgive association with Him, but He forgives anything less than that to whomever He wills. Whoever associates anything with God has devised a monstrous sin.
Lo! Allah forgiveth not that a partner should be ascribed unto Him. He forgiveth (all) save that to whom He will. Whoso ascribeth partners to Allah, he hath indeed invented a tremendous sin
Verily, God pardons not associating aught with Him, but He pardons anything short of that to whomsoever He pleases; but he who associates aught with God, he hath devised a mighty sin
Verily, God will not forgive the union of other gods with Himself! But other than this will forgive to whom He pleaseth. And He who uniteth gods with God hath devised a great wickedness
Surely God will not pardon the giving Him an equal; but will pardon any other sin, except that, to whom He pleaseth: And whoso giveth a companion unto God, hath devised a great wickedness
4:49 — the verse above

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 — 0.62 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.
