But whoever repents after his crime, and reforms, God will accept his repentance. God is Forgiving and Merciful.

Pa dyshim, atij që pendohet pas padrejtësisë që ka bërë dhe përmirësohet, Allahu ia pranon pendimin, se, me të vërtetë, Allahu është Falës i Madh e Mëshirëplotë.
অতঃপর যে তার এ যুলমের পর (চুরি থেকে বিরত থেকে আল্লাহর কাছে) তাওবা করবে এবং নিজেকে সংশোধন করবে, তবে নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ তাকে ক্ষমা করবেন।(৪) নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ ক্ষমাশীল, পরম দয়ালু।
A onome ko se poslije nepravde svoje pokaje i popravi se – Allah će sigurno oprostiti, Allah je, doista, Onaj Koji oprašta grijehe i milostiv je.
A onome tko se poslije nepravde svoje pokaje i popravi se – Allah će sigurno oprostiti, Allah je, doista, Onaj Koji oprašta grijehe i milostiv je.
Kala tuupɗo ɓaawo tooñe makko ɗen, o moƴƴini, pellte, Alla Jaɓanay mo tuubuubuyee. Pellet, Alla ko kafroowo, jurmtooɗo.
ხოლო ვინც მოინანიებს თავისი უსამართლობის შემდეგ [ქურდობის ჩადენის შემდეგ] და გამოსწორდება, მაშინ, ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰი მიიღებს მის მონანიებას. ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰი მპატიებელი, შემწყალებელია.
Wer aber bereut, nachdem er Unrecht getan hat, und es wieder gutmacht, so nimmt Allah seine Reue gewiss an. Wahrlich, Allah ist allvergebend und barmherzig.
Αλλά όποιος στρέφεται με αληθινή μεταμέλεια προς τον Αλλάχ μετά από την αδικία του (τη ληστεία που έκανε) και διορθώσει (τις πράξεις του), ο Αλλάχ θα δεχτεί τη μεταμέλειά του. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Ραχείμ (Πολυεύσπλαχνος). [Όμως, η μεταμέλειά του δεν καταργεί την ποινή του, αν αυτός έχει ήδη φτάσει στα χέρια του κυβερνήτη].
फिर जो व्यक्ति अपने अत्याचार (चोरी) के बाद तौबा कर ले और सुधार करे, तो निश्चय अल्लाह उसकी तौबा स्वीकार करेगा।[29] निःसंदेह अल्लाह अति क्षमाशील, अत्यंत दयावान् है।
Chi si pente dopo un torto commesso e fa del bene, in verità Allāh lo assolverà: in verità Allāh è Perdonatore, Misericordioso.
39. Bet kas atgailauja po savo nusikaltimo ir daro teisingus gerus darbus (paklusdamas Allahui), tada iš tiesų, Allahas dovanos jam (priims jo atgailą). Iš tiesų, Allahas yra Dažnai Atleidžiantis, Gailestingiausiasis.
Namni miidhaa (raawwachuu) isaa booda toowbatee tolche, Rabbiin tawbaa isaa irraa qeebala. Rabbiin akkaan araaramaa, akkaan rahmata godhaadha.
А кто покаялся после того, как поступил несправедливо, и стал совершать праведные деяния, — воистину, Аллах примет его покаяние. Воистину, Аллах — прощающий, милующий.
А ономе ко се после своје неправде покаје и поправи се - Аллах ће сигурно да опрости. Аллах, заиста, опрашта грехе и милостив је.
Lakini mwenye kutubia baada ya dhuluma yake, na akatengenea, basi Mwenyezi Mungu ataipokea toba yake. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kufuta dhambi, Mwenye kurehemu.
Men den som ångrar sin orätt och ställer till rätta, kommer att få sin ånger godtagen av Gud. Gud är sannerligen ständigt förlåtande, barmhärtig.
Kim de zulüm işledikten sonra tevbe eder ve halini düzeltirse, Allah tevbesini kabul eder. Şüphesiz Allah, çok bağışlayandır, çok merhamet edendir.
جو شخص اپنے گناه کے بعد توبہ کرلے اور اصلاح کرلے تو اللہ تعالیٰ رحمت کے ساتھ اس کی طرف لوٹتا ہے[1] ۔ یقیناً اللہ تعالیٰ معاف فرمانے واﻻ مہربانی کرنے واﻻ 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.

O Messenger! Do not let those who are quick to disbelief grieve you-from among those who say with their mouths, "We believe," but their hearts do not believe; and from among the Jews-listeners to lies, listeners to other people who did not come to you. They distort words from their places, and they say, "If you are given this, accept it; but if you are not given it, beware." Whomever God has willed to divert, you have nothing for him from God. Those are they whose hearts God does not intend to purify. For them is disgrace in this world, and for them is a great punishment in the Hereafter.
O Messenger! Let not them grieve thee who vie one with another in the race to disbelief, of such as say with their mouths: "We believe," but their hearts believe not, and of the Jews: listeners for the sake of falsehood, listeners on behalf of other folk who come not unto thee, changing words from their context and saying: If this be given unto you, receive it, but if this be not given unto you, then beware! He whom Allah doometh unto sin, thou (by thine efforts) wilt avail him naught against Allah. Those are they for whom the Will of Allah is that He cleanse not their hearts. Theirs in the world will be ignominy, and in the Hereafter an awful doom
O thou Apostle! let not those grieve thee who vie in misbelief; or those who say with their mouths 'We believe,' but their hearts do not believe; or of those who are Jews, listeners to a lie, - listeners to other people, but who come not to thee. They pervert the words from their places and say, ' If this is what ye are given, take it; but if ye are not given it, then beware!' but he whom God wishes to mislead, thou canst do nothing with God for him; these are those whose hearts God wishes not to purify, for them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the next is mighty woe
O Apostle! let not those who vie with one another in speeding to infidelity vex thee; - of those who say with their mouths, "We believe," but whose hearts believe not; - or of the Jews listeners to a lie-listeners to others - but who come not to thee. They shift the words of the law from their places, and say, "If this be brought to you, receive it; but if this be not brought to you, then beware of it." For him whom God would mislead, thou canst in no wise prevail with God! They whose hearts God shall not please to cleanse, shall suffer disgrace in this world, and in the next a grievous punishment
O apostle, let not them grieve thee, who hasten to infidelity, either of those who say, we believe, with their mouths, but whose hearts believe not; or of the Jews, who hearken to a lie, and hearken to other people; who come not unto thee: They pervert the words of the law from their true places, and say, if this be brought unto you, receive it; but if it be not brought unto you, beware of receiving ought else; and in behalf of him whom God shall resolve to seduce , thou shalt not prevail with God at all. They whose hearts God shall not please to cleanse, shall suffer shame in this world, and a grievous punishment in the next

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.
