古我先王將多于前功，	'Of old, my royal predecessor, (Tang), that his merit might exceed that of those who were before him,
適于山。	proceeded to the hill-site.
用降我凶，	Thereby he removed our evils,
德嘉績于朕邦。	and accomplished admirable good for our country.
今我民用蕩析離居，	Now you, my people, were by (your position) dissipated and separated,
罔有定極，	so that you had no abiding place.
爾謂朕曷震動萬民以遷？	(And yet) you asked why I was troubling your myriads and requiring you to remove.
肆上帝將復我高祖之德，	But God, being about to renew the virtuous service of my high ancestor,
亂越我家。	and secure the good order of our kingdom,
朕及篤敬，	I, with the sincere and respectful (of my ministers),
恭承民命，	felt a reverent care for the lives of the people,
用永地于新邑。	and have made a lasting settlement in (this) new city.
肆予沖人，	I, a youth,
非廢厥謀，	did not neglect your counsels;
弔由靈各；	I (only) used the best of them.
非敢違卜，	Nor did any of you presumptuously oppose the decision of the tortoise-shell;
用宏茲賁。	--so we are here to enlarge our great inheritance.'
