現代語訳
滞りなく執行してきております。特に公家・武家のご祈祷として毎年執行しております競馬会の馬につきましても、一番は倭文庄（美作国）、二番は金津庄（加賀国）、三番は安志庄（播磨国）、四番は土田庄（能登国）、五番は福田庄（出雲国）というように、二十疋すべてにその名称が今も残っております。近年まではこれらの国々の知行によって調達してきましたが、今はそれらの国々の神領が失われてしまいましたので、氏人の給田・家領・諸役人に至るまで石高割りを行い、神主および諸役人等に給付しております。また十二番の馬は正祝が、十四番の馬は権祢宜が調達すべき馬でございますが、これも社家中より給付しております。現在の社司・神主・祢宜・祝は、社領を多分に知行しながら、その役職に必要な費用の負担もせず、かえって社家中が神事を怠っているなどと申し立てておりますが、これはまったくの虚偽でございます。また祝方の御神供も、百年以来執行してきた分は、当年まで滞りなく執行しております。
一、社頭のご修理の件について訴えておりますが、今度の御造営の際まで、御鎮座の社三十余、拝殿・舎屋二十余、鳥居・橋以下に

...have been carried out without fail. In particular, regarding the horses for the kemari-kai [horse racing ceremony] conducted every year as prayers for both the court nobility and the warrior class: the first horse comes from Shitori-no-shō (Mimasaka Province), the second from Kanatsu-no-shō (Kaga Province), the third from Anshi-no-shō (Harima Province), the fourth from Tsuchida-no-shō (Noto Province), and the fifth from Fukuda-no-shō (Izumo Province). All twenty horses continue to retain their designations to this day. Until recently, these horses were procured through the landholdings in those provinces, but as the shrine domains in those provinces have now been lost, we have levied assessments by koku [rice yield] on the stipend fields of the ujibito [shrine-affiliated people], family landholdings, and various officials, distributing payments to the head priests and various officials. Furthermore, the twelfth horse should be procured by the shōhafuri [chief hafuri priest], and the fourteenth horse by the gonnegi [assistant negi priest], but these too are now being provided from among the shrine community. The current shashi [shrine administrators], kannushi [head priests], negi [priests], and hafuri [celebrant priests], while holding a disproportionately large portion of the shrine domains, bear none of the expenses necessary for their official duties, and on the contrary accuse the shrine community of being negligent in the performance of ceremonies — this is a complete falsehood. Furthermore, the divine offerings [goshinkō] of the hafuri group that have been performed for the past hundred years continue to be carried out without fail up to the present year.
Regarding the petition concerning repairs to the shrine buildings: up until the time of the recent reconstruction, there were more than thirty shrine sanctuaries, more than twenty worship halls and auxiliary buildings, and torii gates, bridges, and other structures below these...
