Thuaj: "Ai është i Gjithëmëshirshmi; Atë e besojmë dhe Atij i mbështetemi e ju do ta merrni vesh se kush është në humbje të qartë."
হে রাসূল! তুমি বলো: ‘তিনিই পরম করুণাময়। আমরা তাঁর প্রতি ঈমান এনেছি এবং তাঁর ওপর তাওয়াক্কুল করেছি। কাজেই তোমরা অচিরেই জানতে পারবে, কে স্পষ্ট বিভ্রান্তিতে রয়েছে?’
Reci: “On je Svemilosni, u Njega vjerujemo i na Njega se oslanjamo, a vi ćete, sigurno, saznati ko je u očitoj zabludi.”
Reci: “On je Svemilosni, u Njega vjerujemo i na Njega se oslanjamo, a vi ćete, sigurno, saznati tko je u očitoj zabludi.”
Maaku : "Ko Kaŋko Joom hinaraŋke oon. Min ngooŋɗinii mo, ko e makko kadi men fawii. Aray nde nganndon ko hommbo woni e majjere ɓanngunde".
თქვი: «იგია მოწყალეა (რომელიც გიხმობთ რომ მხოლოდ მას სცეთ თაყვანი), ჩვენ ვირწმუნეთ იგი და მასზე ვართ მინდობილნი. და მალე გაიგებთ, ვინ არის აშკარა ცდომილებაში».
Sag: „Er ist der Allerbarmer. Wir glauben an Ihn, und auf Ihn verlassen wir uns. So werdet ihr (noch) erfahren, wer sich in deutlichem Irrtum befindet.“
Πες (ω, Μωχάμμαντ στους άπιστους): «Αυτός είναι ο Αρ-Ραχμάν (Παντελεήμονας), σ' Αυτόν πιστεύουμε και σ’ Αυτόν βασιζόμαστε (για όλες τις υποθέσεις μας). Και θα μάθετε (όταν θα δείτε την τιμωρία από τον Αλλάχ) ποιος είναι αυτός που βρίσκεται σε φανερή πλάνη.»
आप कह दें : वही अत्यंत दयावान् है। हम उसपर ईमान लाए तथा हमने उसी पर भरोसा किया। तो शीघ्र ही तुम जान लोगे कि वह कौन है जो खुली गुमराही में है।
Di’: «Lui è il Misericordioso, in Lui abbiamo creduto e a Lui ci siamo affidati: saprete chi è in chiara perdizione.»
29. Sakyk: „Jis yra Maloningiausiasis. Mes patikėjome Jį ir Juo mes pasikliauname. O jūs sužinosite, kas yra akivaizdžiame paklydime.“
Jedhi "Inni Rahmaani Isatti amanne; Isa irrattis hirkanne. Namni jallina ifa ta'e keessa jiru eenyu akka ta'e beekuuf jirtu".
Скажи: «Он — Всемилостивый. Мы уверовали в Него и на Него уповаем. И вы скоро узнаете, кто же пребывает в явном заблуждении».
Реци: „Он је Свемилосни, у Њега верујемо и на Њега се ослањамо, а ви ћете сигурно да сазнате ко је у очигледној заблуди.“
Sema: Yeye ndiye Mwingi wa Rehema; tunamuamini Yeye, na juu yake tunategemea. Basi mtakuja jua ni nani aliye katika upotovu ulio dhahiri.
Säg: ”Han är den Nåderike; vi tror på honom och på honom förlitar vi oss. Ni ska snart inse vem som är i klar villfarelse.”
De ki: “O, Rahman’dır. O'na iman ettik ve O'na tevekkül ettik. Kimin apaçık bir dalalette olduğunu yakında öğreneceksiniz.''
آپ کہہ دیجئے! کہ وہی رحمٰن ہے ہم تو اس پر ایمان ﻻچکے[1] اور اسی پر ہمارا بھروسہ ہے[2]۔ تمہیں عنقریب معلوم ہو جائے گا کہ صریح گمراہی میں کون ہے؟[3]
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.

But when they see it approaching, the faces of those who disbelieved will turn gloomy, and it will be said, "This is what you used to call for."
But when they see it nigh, the faces of those who disbelieve will be awry, and it will be said (unto them): This is that for which ye used to call
And when they see it nigh, sorry shall be the faces of those who misbelieve; and it shall be said, 'This is that for which ye used to call

Say (O Muhammad): Have ye thought: Whether Allah causeth me (Muhammad) and those with me to perish or hath mercy on us, still, who will protect the disbelievers from a painful doom

In plain words — none yet for this verse
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 — 0.49 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.
