TranslationPurification through the solemn norito

Includes interpretation

Through the heavenly norito of Takamanohara—through its solemn and venerable words—receive and consume every transgression and impurity, and grant purification and cleansing.

Editorial note

The object of “receive and consume” is not stated explicitly in the compact Japanese text. This rendering supplies transgression and impurity from the prayer’s title and closing petition.
