Musai tha: "Zoti im, më fal mua e vëllanë tim dhe na fut në mëshirën Tënde, se Ti je më i Mëshirshmi i mëshiruesve!"
সে বললো: ‘হে আমার রব! আমাকে ও আমার ভাইকে ক্ষমা করুন এবং আপনার রহমতের মধ্যে আমাদেরকে প্রবেশ করান। আর আপনিই রহমকারীদের মধ্যে শ্রেষ্ঠ।‘
"Gospodaru moj", zamoli Musa, "oprosti meni i bratu mome i učini da budemo pod okriljem Tvoje milosti, Ti si među milostivima najmilostiviji!"
"Gospodaru moj," zamoli Mojsije, "oprosti meni i bratu mome i učini da budemo pod okriljem Tvoje milosti, Ti si među milostivima najmilostiviji!"
O maaki : "Joomi am, yaafom min e (musiɗɗo)neene-gooto am on, naataa min ka yurmeende aa. Ko an woni ɓurɗo yurmeede e yurmeteeɓe ɓen".
(მუსამ) თქვა: «უფალო ჩემო! მაპატიე მე და ჩემს ძმას, და შეგვიყვანე შენს წყალობაში — რადგან შენ ხარ ყველაზე მოწყალე მოწყალეთაგან!»
Er (also Musa) sagte: „Mein Herr, vergib mir und meinem Bruder, und lasse uns in Deine Barmherzigkeit eingehen. Und Du bist ja der Barmherzigste der Barmherzigen.“
Είπε (ο Μωυσής): «Κύριέ μου! Συγχώρεσε εμένα και τον αδελφό μου, και εισήγαγέ μας στο έλεός Σου. Πράγματι, Εσύ είσαι ο πιο Ελεήμων από τους ελεήμονες.»
उसने कहा[52] : ऐ मेरे पालनहार! मुझे तथा मेरे भाई को क्षमा कर दे और हमें अपनी दया में प्रवेश प्रदान कर दे और तू सब दया करने वालों से अधिक दयावान् है।
Disse: «O mio Dio, perdona me e mio fratello, e facci entrare nella Tua misericordia, e Tu sei il più Misericordioso dei misericordiosi!”
151. Mūsa (Mozė) tarė: „Mano Viešpatie, atleisk man ir mano broliui ir suteik mums Savo Gailestingumą, nes Tu esi Gailestingiausias iš tų, kurie rodo gailestingumą.“
(Muusaan) nijedhe "Gooftaa kiyya! Anaafi obboleessa kiyyaaf araarami, Rahmata kee keessas nu seensisi, Ati irra rahmata godhaa warra rahmata godhaniiti".
Он сказал: «Господь мой, прости меня и моего брата и введи нас в Свою милость. Воистину, Ты — самый милующий из милующих».
„Мој Господару“, замоли Мојсије, „опрости мени и моме брату и учини да будемо под окриљем Твоје милости, Ти си међу милостивима најмилостивији!“
(Musa) akasema: Mola wangu Mlezi! Nifutie dhambi mimi na kaka yangu, na utuingize katika rehema yako. Nawe ni Mwenye kurehemu zaidi kuliko wote wenye kurehemu.
Han sa: ”Herre! Förlåt mig och min bror och inneslut oss i din barmhärtighet; du är den barmhärtigaste av de barmhärtiga.”
“Rabbim! Beni de kardeşimi de bağışla! Bizi rahmetine al. Sen rahmet edenlerin en merhametlisisin!” dedi.

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.

Then, when they regretted, and realized that they had erred, they said, "Unless our Lord extends His mercy to us, and forgives us, we will be among the losers."
And when they feared the consequences thereof and saw that they had gone astray, they said: Unless our Lord have mercy on us and forgive us, we verily are of the lost
but when they bit their hands with fruitless rage and saw that they had gone astray, they said,' Verily, if our Lord have not compassion on us and forgive us we shall surely be of those who lose
But when they repented, and saw that they had erred, they said, Truly if our Lord have not mercy on us, and forgive us, we shall surely be of those who perish
And when they were smitten with remorse and saw that they had indeed gone astray, they said, 'If our Lord have not mercy on us and forgive us, we shall surely be of the losers

And when Moses returned to his people, angry and disappointed, he said, "What an awful thing you did in my absence. Did you forsake the commandments of your Lord so hastily?" And he threw down the tablets; and he took hold of his brother's head, dragging him towards himself. He said, "Son of my mother, the people have overpowered me, and were about to kill me; so do not allow the enemies to gloat over me, and do not count me among the unjust people."
And when Moses returned unto his people, angry and grieved, he said: Evil is that (course) which ye took after I had left you. Would ye hasten on the judgment of your Lord? And he cast down the tablets, and he seized his brother by the head, dragging him toward him. He said: Son of my mother! Lo! the folk did judge me weak and almost killed me. Oh, make not mine enemies to triumph over me and place me not among the evil-doers
And when Moses returned unto his people angry and grieved, he said, 'Evil is it that ye have done after me! Would ye hasten on the bidding of your Lord?' and he threw down the tablets and took his brother by the head to drag him towards him, but he said, 'O son of my mother! verily, the people weakened me and well-nigh killed me; make not then mine enemies glad about me, and put me not with the unjust people
And when Moses returned to his people, wrathful, angered, he said, "Evil is it that ye have done next upon my departure. Would ye hasten on the judgments of your Lord?" And he threw down the tables, and seized his brother by the head and dragged him unto him. Said he, "Son of my mother! the people thought me weak, and had well nigh slain me. Make not mine enemies to rejoice over me, and place me not among the wrong doers
And when Moses returned to his people, indignant and grieved, he said, 'Evil is that which you did in my place in my absence. Did you hasten to devise a way for yourselves without waiting for the command of your Lord?' And he put down the tablet and seized his brother by the head, dragging him towards himself. Aaron said, 'Son of my mother, the people indeed deemed me weak, and were about to kill me. Therefore make not the enemies rejoice over my misfortune and place me not with the unjust people

Those who idolized the calf have incurred wrath from their Lord, and humiliation in this life. We thus requite the innovators.
Lo! Those who chose the calf (for worship), terror from their Lord and humiliation will come upon them in the life of the world. Thus do We requite those who invent a lie

As for those who commit sins, and then repent afterwards and believe-your Lord, thereafter, is Forgiving and Merciful.
But those who do ill-deeds and afterward repent and believe - lo! for them, afterward, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful
But those who have done bad works, and then turn again after them and believe,- verily, thy Lord, after that, is forgiving and merciful

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 — 0.44 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.
