English translation by Millichip:
I proclaim: “You are all my close nephews. Further, the Court Official has summoned and proclaimed to you in an Imperial edict many times: ‘Assist and serve the Empress well after me.’ The Sukune of Ōtomo and Saeki have served as my bodyguard from the reigns of ancient Emperors and the Sukune of Ōtomo and are also my relatives. I do not hear of such terrible things when you all assist and serve the Imperial court in unison. It must be so because of your evil. All of you assist and serve the Imperial court with a clean and pure heart.”
