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.
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.
So woe to those who disbelieve because of that Day of theirs which they are promised.

Mjerë mohuesit në atë Ditë që u është premtuar!
অতএব, যারা কুফরী করেছে তাদের জন্য কিয়ামত দিবসের ধ্বংস, যেদিনের প্রতিশ্রুতি তাদেরকে দেয়া হয়েছে।
a, teško nevjernicima na Dan kojim im se prijeti!
a, teško nevjernicima na Dan kojim im se prijeti!
Bone woodanii ɓeen yedduɓe, e nde Ñalaande maɓɓe nde ɓe kammbanaa!
ვაი, იმათ, ვინც არ ირწმუნეს, იმ დღისაგან, რომელიც აღეთქვათ!
So wehe denjenigen, die ungläubig sind, vor ihrem Tag, der ihnen angedroht ist!
Αλίμονο, λοιπόν, σ' αυτούς που αρνήθηκαν την πίστη, από την τιμωρία της Ημέρας τους, για την οποία έλαβαν προειδοποίηση και υπόσχεση.
अतः इनकार करने वालों के लिए उनके उस दिन[14] से बड़ा विनाश है, जिसका उनसे वादा किया जा रहा है।
Guai ai miscredenti dal Giorno che è stato loro promesso!
60. Tada vargas tiems, kurie netiki (Allahą ir Jo Vienumą – islamo monoteizmą), kai jie susidurs su Diena, kuri jiems buvo pažadėta (kaip bausmė)!
Warra kafaraniif guyyaa isaanii kan beellama godhaman keessatti badiin isaaniif mirkanaa’eera.
Так горе же тем, которые отвергли веру, — от их Дня, который им был обещан!
а, тешко неверницима на Дан којим им се прети!
Basi ole wao wale walioikanusha siku yao waliyoahidiwa.
På den utlovade dagen ska de otrogna gå sin undergång till mötes.
Tehdit olundukları o (azap) günlerinden dolayı vay o kâfir olanlara!
پس خرابی ہے منکروں کو ان کے اس دن کی جس کا وعده دیئے جاتے ہیں.
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.

God is the Provider, the One with Power, the Strong.
Lo! Allah! He it is that giveth livelihood, the Lord of unbreakable might
Verily, God, He is the provider, endowed with steady might
Verily, God is the sole sustainer: possessed of might: the unshaken
Verily God is He who provideth for all creatures; possessed of mighty power

The translators word this verse differently
Those who do wrong will have their turn, like the turn of their counterparts, so let them not rush Me.
And lo! for those who (now) do wrong there is an evil day like unto the evil day (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on (that day)
Verily, for those who injure (the Apostle) shall be a portion like the portion of their fellows, but let them not hurry Me
Therefore to those who injure thee shall be a fate like the fate of their fellows of old. Let them not challenge me to hasten it
Unto those who shall injure our apostle shall be given a portion like unto the portion of those who behaved like them in times past; and they shall not wish the same to be hastened

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 — 0.63 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.
