English translation by Millichip:
Now I proclaim to Wake: “When the high treason of Naramaro and his cohort happened previously, Nakamaro served as a proper vassal. However, when he later gathered soldiers to disturb and put the court in danger with an opposing heart, [you], Wake, reported this to me. So I raised your bureaucratic rank. Despite this, later both Nakamaro and [you], Wake, were even more opposed. Also, when I saw the text of what you prayed and asked for to the spirits of your ancestors it said, ‘If you make happen [only] what I think and long for in my heart I will call on the capital about the banishing of the generations and generations of children of your awesome spirits and make them vassals.’ You also have two enemies of women and men. [Your prayer] says, ‘kill them!’ Looking at this document I can clearly see that you have feelings of high treason. So I rule according to the law.”
