Ata thanë: "Duam të hamë prej saj, me qëllim që të na qetësohen zemrat, ta dimë se na ke thënë të vërtetën dhe të bëhemi dëshmitarë të saj."
তারা বলল: ‘আমাদের বাসনা, আমরা তা থেকে কিছু খাবো এবং আমাদের হৃদয় প্রশান্ত হবে। আর আমরা এ কথা দৃঢ়ভাবে জানব যে, আপনি আমাদেরকে সত্যই বলেছেন। উপরন্তু আমরা এ ব্যাপারে সাক্ষী হয়ে থাকবো।

Sie sagten: ‚Wir wollen von ihr essen, und unsere Herzen sollen Ruhe finden, und wir wollen wissen, dass du zu uns wirklich die Wahrheit gesprochen hast, und wir wollen zu denen gehören, die darüber Zeugnis ablegen (können).‘“
Είπαν (οι μαθητές): «Θέλουμε να φάμε απ' αυτό και να καθησυχαστούν οι καρδιές μας (και να είναι σίγουρες για την τελειότητα της Δύναμης του Αλλάχ και για το ότι είσαι ο Αγγελιαφόρος Του) και να μάθουμε (με βεβαιότητα) ότι μας είπες την αλήθεια (για ό,τι έφερες από τον Κύριό σου) και να είμαστε μάρτυρες σ' αυτό (το τραπέζι ότι είναι θαύμα από τον Αλλάχ).»
उन्होंने कहा : हम चाहते हैं कि उसमें से खाएँ और हमारे दिलों को संतोष हो जाए तथा हम जान लें कि निश्चय तूने हमसे सच कहा है और हम उसपर गवाहों में से हो जाएँ।
Dissero: “Vogliamo mangiarne (da questa mensa) e che si tranquillizzino i nostri cuori, e vogliamo convincerci che ci hai detto la verità e ne saremo testimoni!”
113. Jie sakė: „Mes norime tuo pasisotinti ir pamaloninti savo širdis (kad jos būtų stipresnės Tikėjime), ir sužinoti, kad tu tikrai pasakojai mums tiesą ir kad mes patys esame jos liudytojai.“

Они сказали: «Мы хотим вкусить из неё, и чтобы наши сердца успокоились, и чтобы мы знали, что ты сказал нам правду, и чтобы мы были свидетелями этого».
Ми желимо, рекоше они, са ње да једемо и да срца наша буду смирена и да се уверимо да си нам истину говорио, и да будемо они који ће о њој да сведоче.

De sa: ”Vi vill äta av det, så att våra hjärtan finner ro, och så att vi vet att du har talat sanning till oss, och så att vi kan vara vittnen om detta.”
Havariler ise: "Ondan yemek istiyoruz, (böylece) kalplerimiz mutmain olsun ve bize doğruyu söylediğini bilelim ve buna şahitlerden olalım." demişlerdi.

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.

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 — 0.48 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.
