當地時間10月22日下午1時，日本第126代天皇德仁的「即位禮正殿之儀」在東京皇居舉行。
Emperor Naruhito took the throne in May, and on Tuesday dignitaries from Japan and other countries are celebrating his enthronement.
日本德仁天皇（Emperor Naruhito）於今年5月即位，周二，日本和其他國家的政要正慶祝天皇的即位。
As about 2,000 people looked on, the curtains of the Imperial Throne called "Takamikura" were opened, revealing Emperor Naruhito dressed in a traditional robe.
在大約2000人的注視下，被稱為「高御座」的寶座前的幕布拉開，身穿日本傳統長袍的德仁天皇出現在大家眼前。
Empress Masako was in a smaller structure known as "Michodai", wearing a ceremonial kimono.
雅子皇后（Empress Masako）站在名為「御帳臺」的稍小的臺子上，身穿傳統正式和服。
In a moment steeped in tradition, the Emperor officially proclaimed his enthronement.
在充滿傳統氛圍的時刻，天皇正式宣布了即位。
Emperor Naruhito said: "I pledge hereby that I shall act according to the Constitution and fulfill my responsibility as the symbol of the State and of the unity of the people of Japan, while always wishing for the happiness of the people and the peace of the world, turning my thoughts to the people and standing by them.
德仁天皇說到：「在此，我立誓在始終祈願國民幸福和世界和平、貼近並與國民站在一起的同時，遵循憲法履行作為日本國與日本國民統合象徵的職責。
I sincerely hope that our country, through our people's wisdom and unceasing efforts, achieves further development and contributes to the friendship and peace of the international community and the welfare and prosperity of humankind."
殷切希望通過國民的睿智和不懈努力，我國將實現進一步發展，為國際社會的友好與和平、人類的福祉與繁榮作出貢獻。」
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe then delivered a congratulatory address on behalf of people of Japan.
隨後，日本首相安倍晉三（Shinzo Abe）代表日本人民發表了賀詞。
He said: "Looking up to Your Majesty as the symbol of the State and of the unity of the people, we, the people of Japan, with fresh minds, will engage in our very best efforts to create a bright future for a Japan in which we take pride, a Japan that is peaceful and brimming with hope, and an era of culture coming into being and flourishing, when people bring their hearts and minds together in a beautiful manner."
他講到：「尊敬的天皇陛下，您是日本國和日本國民統合的象徵，包括我在內的日本全體國民將用全新的思想、盡最大的努力創造出和平、充滿希望、文化繁榮且值得自豪的日本的輝煌未來，將全體國民的心和思想匯聚在一起。」
That was followed by three rounds of banzai, a traditional Japanese exclamation wishing a long life.
之後安倍高呼三聲「萬歲」，這是日本祝福長壽的一種傳統祈福語。
A motorcade parade was planned for the afternoon.
原計劃在下午進行車隊遊行。
But the government postponed it by three weeks in consideration for the victims of Typhoon Hagibis which hit the country earlier this month.
但是政府考慮到本月初襲擊該國的颱風海貝思的受害者，將其推遲了三周。
The first of a series of court banquets to celebrate the Emperor's enthronement will be held as scheduled later in the evening.
為慶祝天皇登基的一系列宮廷宴會中的第一場將在晚上晚些時候如期舉行。
