English translation by Millichip:
I proclaim, imperial children, lords, statesmen, officials and people of the realm, all of you hear the imperial emperor, too awesome to mention, the Yamato ruler, who rules the eight-island state as a living God.I proclaim, all of you hear the imperial edict that says: “I made Inube-no-Aneme a servant of my house, raised her cap and rank and changed her original name. However, in return, she lead the Lords of Iwata and Osaka as their head, with a rebellious heart, and built relations with dirty and evil despicable men and planned, often going to Kuriya-no-Mahito and Lady Kuriya, who were banished by a previous emperor, too awesome to mention, for their transgressions. They planned to put the court in danger, disturb the realm and make Shikeshimaro, son of the banished Hikami-no-Shioyaki, the heir of heaven and stealing hairs of the emperor, too awesome to mention, and putting it in a skull from the dirty Sao river, they carried it into the Palace and performed a curse three times. However, by the marvelous supernatural power of the Rusyana Buddha, the Golden Light Sutra, Guanyin Boddhisatva, Dharmapala, Brahman, Sakra and the Four Heavenly Kings, and by the protecting and helping power of the souls of the Emperors, too awesome to mention, who have ruled the realm since the beginning of heaven and earth and the power of the gods of heaven and earth, the curses that they had filthily planned and performed were all completely revealed. So, considering the laws, they all correspond to the punishment of death. Based on this, according to the laws they should be banished. However, being merciful I lower the punishment one grade and change their names back and banish them afar.
