God only made it a message of hope, and to set your hearts at rest. Victory comes only from God. God is Mighty and Wise.

Allahu e bëri këtë vetëm si përgëzim dhe për t'i qetësuar zemrat tuaja. Fitorja vjen vetëm nga Allahu. Vërtet, Allahu është i Gjithëfuqishëm dhe i Urtë.
আর আল্লাহ এটা করেছেন শুধু সুসংবাদ স্বরূপ এবং যাতে তোমাদের অন্তরসমূহ এর দ্বারা প্রশান্তি লাভ করে। আর সাহায্য তো শুধু আল্লাহর কাছ থেকেই আসে। নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ প্রবল পরাক্রমশালী, প্রজ্ঞাময়।

და დაადგინა ეს [დახმარება] ალლაჰმა მხოლოდ სასიხარულო ცნობად და იმისათვის, რომ თქვენი გულები დამშვიდებულიყო. რადგან გამარჯვება მოდის მხოლოდ ალლაჰისგან (და არა რიცხობრივი ან ძალობრივი უპირატესობის გამო); ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰი ყოვლადძლიერი, ბრძენია.
Und Allah machte es nur zu einer frohen Botschaft und damit eure Herzen dadurch Ruhe fänden. Und der Sieg kommt ja nur von Allah. Wahrlich, Allah ist allmächtig und allweise.
Και δεν το έκανε ο Αλλάχ αυτό (ότι σας έστειλε χίλιους αγγέλους) παρά μόνο ως χαρμόσυνα νέα (για σας, ω, πιστοί, ότι θα νικήσετε τον εχθρό σας) και για να καθησυχαστούν μ' αυτό οι καρδιές σας. Πράγματι, η νίκη δεν έρχεται παρά μόνο από τον Αλλάχ. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι ‘Αζείζ (Παντοδύναμος, Ανίκητος) και Χακείμ (Πάνσοφος).
और अल्लाह ने यह इसलिए किया कि (तुम्हारे लिए) शुभ सूचना हो और ताकि इसके साथ तुम्हारे दिल संतुष्ट हो जाएँ। अन्यथा सहायता तो अल्लाह ही की ओर से होती है। निःसंदेह अल्लाह सब पर प्रभुत्वशाली, पूर्ण हिकमत वाला है।
E Allāh non lo stabilì se non come Buon Annuncio, e per tranquillizzare i vostri cuori. E non c’è vittoria se non da Allāh! In verità Allāh è Potente, Saggio!
10. Allahas padarė tai tik gera žinia ir tam, kad jūsų širdys būtų ramybėje dėl jos. Ir nėra pergalės išskyrus iš Allaho. Iš tiesų, Allahas yra Visa Galingas, Visa Išmanantis.

Аллах сделал это не иначе как благой вестью, чтобы ваши сердца обрели покой благодаря этому. Победа — не иначе как от Аллаха. Воистину, Аллах — могущественный, мудрый.
Аллах је то учинио да би вас обрадовао и да би се тиме ваша срца умирила; а победа је само од Аллаха, јер Аллах је заиста силан и мудар.
Na Mwenyezi Mungu hakufanya hayo isipokuwa yawe ni bishara na ili nyoyo zenu zitue kwayo. Na nusura haiwi isipokuwa kutoka kwa Mwenyezi Mungu. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye nguvu, Mwenye hekima.
Gud gjorde detta endast till ett glädjande besked för er, och för att lugna era hjärtan. Men segern kommer i verkligheten enbart från Gud. Gud är allsmäktig, vis.
Allah, bunu yanlızca bir müjde olması ve kalplerinizin yatışması için yaptı. Yardım yalnızca Allah katındandır. Şüphe yok ki Allah mutlak galiptir, Hakîm'dir.
اور اللہ تعالیٰ نے یہ امداد محض اس لیے کی کہ بشارت ہو اور تاکہ تمہارے دلوں کو قرار ہو جائے اور مدد صرف اللہ ہی کی طرف سے ہے[1] جو کہ زبردست حکمت 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.

That he might prove his truth to be the truth, and bring to nought that which is nought, though the impious were averse to it
That He might establish the Truth and bring to naught that which is false, although the guilty may dislike it

He made drowsiness overcome you, as a security from Him. And He sent down upon you water from the sky, to cleanse you with it, and to rid you of Satan's pollution, and to fortify your hearts, and to strengthen your foothold.
When He made the slumber fall upon you as a reassurance from him and sent down water from the sky upon you, that thereby He might purify you, and remove from you the fear of Satan, and make strong your hearts and firm (your) feet thereby
When drowsiness covered you as a security from Him, and He sent down upon you from the heavens water to purify you withal, and to take away from you the plague of Satan, and to tie up your hearts and to make firm your footsteps
Recollect when sleep, a sign of security from Him, fell upon you, and he sent down upon you water from Heaven that he might thereby cleanse you, and cause the pollution of Satan to pass from you, and that he might gird up your hearts, and stablish your feet by it

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 — 0.61 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.
