天子聞君王王南越,不助天下誅暴逆,將相欲移兵而誅王,天子憐百姓新勞苦,故且休之,遣臣授君王印,剖符通使。 The Son of Heaven heard that you rule over Nanyue yet did not aid in the punishment of the violent and the rebellious. His generals and ministers wished to march their armies south to destroy you, but the Son of Heaven took pity on the common people, who had only just endured such suffering, and so granted you a reprieve. He has sent me to bestow upon you the royal seal and the split tallies for the exchange of envoys.
