The translators word this verse differently
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.
That is because God would never change a blessing He has bestowed on a people unless they change what is within themselves, and because God is Hearing and Knowing.

Kjo, për shkak se Allahu nuk ndryshon kurrë bekimet që ia ka dhuruar një populli derisa ata të ndryshojnë atë që kanë në vetvete. Me të vërtetë, Allahu është Gjithëdëgjues, i Gjithëdijshëm.
এ কঠিন শাস্তি এ কারণে যে, আল্লাহ কোনো সম্প্রদায়ের প্রতি যে অনুগ্রহ দান করেন, তা তিনি পরিবর্তন করেন না (প্রত্যাহার করেন না), যতক্ষণ না তারা নিজেদের (ভালো অবস্থাকে খারাপ অবস্থায়) পরিবর্তন ঘটায়।(২১) আর নিশ্চয়ই আল্লাহ সর্বশ্রোতা, সর্বজ্ঞ।
To je zato što Allah neće lišiti blagostanja narod kome ga je podario, sve dok se on sam ne promijeni. – A Allah sve čuje i sve zna.
To je zato što Allah neće lišiti blagostanja narod kome ga je podario, sve dok se on sam ne promijeni. A Allah sve čuje i sve zna.

ეს [არის ის, რომ ალლაჰმა დასაჯა ჯიუტი ურწმუნოები, რომლებიც მათ წინ ცხოვრობდნენ] იმის გამო, რომ ალლაჰი არ არის ისეთი, რომ შეცვალოს [ან წაართვას] წყალობა, რომელიც მან ხალხს უბოძა, სანამ ისინი (თავად) არ შეცვლიან იმას, რაც მათშია და ეს იმიტომაც, რომ ალლაჰი ყოვლისმსმენი, ყოვლისმცოდნეა.
Dies(e Strafe kommt zustande), weil Allah niemals eine Gunstgabe, die Er einem Volk erwiesen hat, ändert, bis sie das ändern, was in ihnen selbst ist, und weil Allah allhörend und allwissend ist.
Αυτή (η αυστηρή τιμωρία) έγινε επειδή ο Αλλάχ δε θα άλλαζε ποτέ μία εύνοια που έχει χαρίσει σε έναν λαό, μέχρι να αλλάξουν (οι άνθρωποι απ' εκείνο τον λαό) την κατάστασή τους (από την πίστη και την ευγνωμοσύνη προς τις χάρες του Αλλάχ, στην απιστία και την αγνωμοσύνη). Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Σαμεί‘ (Αυτός που ακούει τα πάντα) και ‘Αλείμ (Παντογνώστης).
यह इस कारण (हुआ) कि अल्लाह कभी भी उस नेमत को बदलने वाला नहीं है, जो उसने किसी जाति पर की हो, यहाँ तक कि वे (स्वयं) बदल दें जो उनके दिलों में है। और इसलिए कि अल्लाह सब कुछ सुनने वाला, सब कुछ जानने वाला है।
Ciò perché in verità Allāh non cambia la grazia che ha concesso ad un popolo finché quello non cambia ciò che ha nell’animo, e in verità Allāh è Ascoltatore, Sapiente.
53. Tai yra todėl, kad Allahas niekada nepakeis malonės, kurią Jis suteikė žmonėms, tol, kol jie nepakeis to, kas yra juose. Ir iš tiesų, Allahas yra Visa Girdintis, Visa Žinantis.
Kun waan Rabbiin qanani ummata irratti oole kan jirjiiru hintahiniifi hanga isaan waan lubbuulee isaanii keessa jiru jijjiirinitti. Rabbiin dhagayaa beekaadha. [11]
Это потому, что Аллах не изменяет благодати, которой Он облагодетельствовал народ, пока они сами не изменят того, что в их душах, и потому, что Аллах — слышащий, знающий.
То је зато што Аллах неће да лиши благостања народ коме је благостање подарио - све док се он сам не промени - а Аллах све чује и све зна.
Hiyo ni kwa sababu Mwenyezi Mungu hakuwa ni wa kuibadilisha neema aliyowaneemesha kwayo kaumu, mpaka wao wabadilishe yale yaliyo katika nafsi zao, na kwamba hakika Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kusikia vyema, Mwenye kujua yote.
Det är för att Gud inte ändrar en välgärning han skänkt ett folk förrän de själva ändrar sitt tillstånd. Gud hör allt, vet allt.
Bunun sebebi şudur: Bir toplum kendilerinde bulunan (iyi davranışlar)ı değiştirmedikçe, Allah onlara verdiği bir nimeti değiştirmez ve şüphesiz Allah hakkıyla işitendir, hakkıyla bilendir.
یہ اس لئے کہ اللہ تعالیٰ ایسا نہیں کہ کسی قوم پر کوئی نعمت انعام فرما کر پھر بدل دے جب تک کہ وه خود اپنی اس حالت کو نہ بدل دیں جو کہ ان کی اپنی تھی[1] اور یہ کہ اللہ سننے واﻻ جاننے 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.

Like the behavior of the people of Pharaoh, and those before them. They rejected the signs of God, so God seized them for their sins. God is Powerful, Severe in punishment.
(Their way is) as the way of Pharaoh's folk and those before them; they disbelieved the revelations of Allah, and Allah took them in their sins. Lo! Allah is Strong, severe in punishment
As was the wont of Pharaoh's people and those before them! they disbelieved in the signs of God, and God overtook them in their sins; verily, God is strong and keen to punish
Their state is like that of the people of Pharaoh and of those before them who believed not in the signs of God: therefore God seized upon them in their sin! God is Mighty, severe in punishing
These have acted according to the wont of the people of Pharaoh, and of those before them, who disbelieved in the signs of God: Therefore God took them away in their iniquity; for God is mighty, and severe in punishing

Such was the case with the people of Pharaoh, and those before them. They denied the signs of their Lord, so We annihilated them for their wrongs, and We drowned the people of Pharaoh-they were all evildoers.
(Their way is) as the way of Pharaoh's folk and those before them; they denied the revelations of their Lord, so We destroyed them in their sins. And We drowned the folk of Pharaoh. All were evil-doers
As was the wont of Pharaoh's people and those before them! they said our signs were lies, and we destroyed them in their sins, and drowned Pharaoh's people; and all of them were evildoers
Their state is like that of the people of Pharaoh, and of those before them who treated their Lord's signs as lies. We therefore destroyed them in their sins, and we drowned the people of Pharaoh; for they were all doers of wrong
According to the wont of the people of Pharaoh, and of those before them, who charged the signs of their Lord with imposture, have they acted: Wherefore We destroyed them in their sins, and We drowned the people of Pharaoh; for they were all unjust persons

Verily, the worst of beasts in God's eyes are those who misbelieve and will not believe

Verily the worst cattle in the sight of God are those who are obstinate infidels, and will not believe

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 — 0.66 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.
