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.
The translators word this verse differently
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.
Beyond them lies Hell. What they have earned will not benefit them at all, nor will those they adopted as lords instead of God. They will have a terrible punishment.

Para tyre është Xhehenemi dhe atyre nuk do t'u bëjë dobi aspak ajo që kanë fituar e as ata (idhujt) që kanë marrë për mbrojtës në vend të Allahut. Ata do të kenë një ndëshkim të madh.
তাদের সামনে রয়েছে জাহান্নাম। তারা যা উপার্জন করেছে অথবা আল্লাহর পরিবর্তে তারা যাদের অভিভাবক হিসেবে গ্রহণ করেছে, এসব তাদের কোন উপকারে আসবে না। তাদের জন্য রয়েছে মহাশাস্তি।
Pred njima je Džehennem, i ni od kakve koristi im neće biti ono što su stekli, ni oni koje su, pored Allaha, za zaštitnike uzeli, i njih čeka patnja golema.
Pred njima je Pakao, i ni od kakve koristi im neće biti ono što su stekli, ni oni koje su, pored Allaha, za zaštitnike uzeli, i njih čeka patnja golema.

Hinter ihnen (wartet) die Hölle. Und es nützt ihnen nicht, was sie erworben und (auch) nicht, was sie sich anstatt Allahs zu Schutzherren genommen haben; für sie wird es gewaltige Strafe geben.
Μπροστά τους θα είναι η Κόλαση (που θα τους περιμένει την Ημέρα της Κρίσεως). Δε θα τους ωφελήσουν σε τίποτε όσα κέρδισαν (από πλούτη), ούτε όσους πήραν ως κηδεμόνες εκτός από τον Αλλάχ. Θα έχουν ένα τρομερό μαρτύριο.
उनके आगे जहन्नम है। और न वह उनके कुछ काम आएगा, जो उन्होंने कमाया और न वे जिन्हें उन्होंने अल्लाह के सिवा अपना संरक्षक बनाया है और उनके लिए बहुत बड़ी यातना है।
Ad aspettarli c’è l`Inferno e non gioverà loro niente di ciò che hanno guadagnato, e nemmeno coloro che si sono presi come protettori all’infuori di Allāh, e avranno una grande punizione.

Пред њима је Пакао, и ни од какве користи неће да им буде оно што су стекли, ни они које су, поред Аллаха, узели за заштитнике, и њих чека огромна патња.

Framför dem väntar helvetet och varken deras rikedomar eller det de dyrkade vid sidan av Gud kommer att rädda dem. Ja, de ska få ett oerhört straff.
Önlerinden Cehennem (beklemektedir)! Kazandıkları hiçbir şey, Allah’ın dışında edindikleri evliyalar onlara fayda vermez. Onlar için büyük bir azap vardır.
ان کے پیچھے دوزخ ہے[1] ، جو کچھ انہوں نے حاصل کیا تھا وه انہیں کچھ بھی نفع نہ[2] دے گا اور نہ وه (کچھ کام آئیں گے) جن کو انہوں نے اللہ کے سوا کارساز[3] بنا رکھا تھا، ان کے لیے تو بہت بڑا عذاب 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
Who hears God's revelations being recited to him, yet he persists arrogantly, as though he did not hear them. Announce to him a painful punishment.
Who heareth the revelations of Allah recited unto him, and then continueth in pride as though he heard them not. Give him tidings of a painful doom
who hears God's signs sent to him, then persists in being big with pride as though he heard them not - so give him the glad-tidings of grievous woe
Who heareth the signs of God recited to him, and then, as though he heard them not, persisteth in proud disdain! Apprise him of an afflictive punishment
who heareth the signs of God, which are read unto him, and afterwards proudly persisteth in infidelity, as though he heard them not: -- Denounce unto him a painful punishment

And when he learns something of Our revelations, he takes them in mockery. For such there is a shameful punishment.
And when he knoweth aught of Our revelations he maketh it a jest. For such there is a shameful doom
and when he knows something of our signs takes them for a jest! These,- for them is shameful woe
And when he becometh acquainted with any of our signs he turneth them into ridicule. These! a shameful punishment for them
And who, when he cometh to the knowledge of any of our signs, receiveth the same with scorn. For these is prepared a shameful punishment

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 — 0.74 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.
