God created the heavens and the earth with justice, so that every soul will be repaid for what it has earned. And they will not be wronged.

Allahu krijoi qiejt dhe Tokën me urtësi e me qëllim që çdo njeri të shpërblehet për atë që ka punuar, ndërkohë atyre nuk do t'u bëhet padrejtësi.
আর আল্লাহ আসমানসমূহ ও জমিনকে যথার্থভাবে সৃষ্টি করেছেন এবং যাতে প্রত্যেক ব্যক্তি তার (ভালো-মন্দ) কর্মের প্রতিদান পায়। এক্ষেত্রে তাদের ওপর সামান্যতমও যুলম করা হবে না।
A Allah je nebesa i Zemlju s Istinom stvorio i zato da bi svaka osoba bila nagrađena ili kažnjena prema onom što je zaradila i njima nepravda učinjena neće biti.

Alla tagrii kammuuji e leydi goonga ngam kala fittaandu yoɓee kondu fagginoo ko kamɓe ɓe tooñetaake.
და შექმნა ალლაჰმა ცანი და დედამიწა ჭეშმარიტებით, და რათა მიეზღოს ყოველ სულს იმის მიხედვით, რაც მოიხვეჭა, და ისინი არ დაიჩაგრებიან.
Und Allah hat die Himmel und die Erde in Wahrheit erschaffen, und damit jeder Seele das vergolten wird, was sie erworben hat, und es wird ihnen kein Unrecht zugefügt.
Ο Αλλάχ δημιούργησε τους ουρανούς και τη γη με την αλήθεια, και για να λάβει η κάθε ψυχή (είτε ανταμοιβή, είτε τιμωρία) για όσα έκανε, και δε θα αδικηθούν!
तथा अल्लाह ने आकाशों और धरती को हक़ के साथ पैदा किया और ताकि हर व्यक्ति को उसका बदला दिया जाए जो उसने कमाया तथा उनपर अत्याचार नहीं किया जाएगा।
E Allāh creò i cieli e la terra con la Verità, perché ogni anima riceva ciò che giustamente merita, e non subiranno torto.
22. Ir Allahas sukūrė dangus ir žemę teisingai, tam, kad kiekvienam asmeniui būtų atlyginta už tai, ką jis įgijo, ir nebus jie nuskriausti.
Rabbiin samiileefi dachii haqaan uume, akka lubbuun hundi waan hojjatteen mindeeffamtuuf, Odoo isaan hin miidhamne.
Аллах сотворил небеса и землю в соответствии с истиной, чтобы каждая душа получила воздаяние за то, что приобрела, и с ними не поступят несправедливо.
А Аллах је небеса и Земљу створио са истином и зато да би свака особа била награђена или кажњена према оном што је урадила, и неће им бити учињено насиље.
Na Mwenyezi Mungu ameziumba mbingu na ardhi kwa haki, na ili kila nafsi ilipwe yale iliyoyachuma. Nao hawatadhulumiwa.
Gud har skapat himlarna och jorden för ett verkligt syfte; för att varje själ ska lönas för sina handlingar – och ingen ska behandlas orättvist.
Allah, her nefis kazanmakta olduklarıyla karşılık görsün diye gökleri ve yeri hak olarak yarattı. Onlara zulmedilmez.
اور آسمانوں اور زمین کو اللہ نے بہت ہی عدل کے ساتھ پیدا کیا ہے اور تاکہ ہر شخص کو اس کے کیے ہوئے کام کا پورا بدلہ دیا جائے اور ان پر 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.

Do those who perpetrate the evil deeds assume that We will regard them as equal to those who believe and do righteous deeds, whether in their life or their death? Evil is their judgment!
Or do those who commit ill-deeds suppose that We shall make them as those who believe and do good works, the same in life and death? Bad is their judgment

The translators word this verse differently
Have you considered him who has taken his desire for his god? God has knowingly led him astray, and has sealed his hearing and his heart, and has placed a veil over his vision. Who will guide him after God? Will you not reflect?
Hast thou seen him who maketh his desire his god, and Allah sendeth him astray purposely, and sealeth up his hearing and his heart, and setteth on his sight a covering? Then who will lead him after Allah (hath condemned him)? Will ye not then heed
Hast thou considered him who takes his lusts for his god, and God leads him astray wittingly, and has set a seal upon his hearing and his heart, and has placed upon his eyesight dimness? who then shall guide him after God? Will they not then mind
What thinkest thou? He who hath made a God of his passions, and whom God causeth wilfully to err, and whose ears and whose heart he hath sealed up, and over whose sight he hath placed a veil - who, after his rejection by God, shall guide such a one? Will ye not then be warned
What thinkest thou? He who taketh his own lust for his God, and whom God causeth knowingly to err, and whose ears, and whose heart He hath sealed up, and over whose eyes He hath cast a veil; who shall direct him, after God shall have forsaken him? Will ye not therefore be admonished

And they say, "There is nothing but this our present life; we die and we live, and nothing destroys us except time." But they have no knowledge of that; they are only guessing.

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 — 0.50 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.
