Sukunabikona comes少名毗古那神
1Sukunabikona comes, and the god of Mount Mimoro comes
故大國主神坐出雲之御大之御前時，自波穗乘天之羅摩船而内剥鵝皮剥為衣服，有歸來神。尒雖問其名，不答。且雖問所從之諸神，皆白不知。尒多迩具久白言：「此者久延毗古必知之。」即召久延毗古問時，答白：「此者神産巢日神之御子，少名毗古那神。」故尒白上於神産巢日御祖命者，答告：「此者實我子也。於子之中，自我手俣久岐斯子也。故与汝葦原色許男命，為兄弟而作堅其國。」故自尒，大穴牟遲与少名毗古那二柱神相並，作堅此國。然後者，其少名毗古那神者，度于常世國也。故顯白其少名毗古那神，所謂久延毗古者，於今者山田之曾富騰者也。此神者，足雖不行，盡知天下之事神也。於是大國主神愁而告：「吾獨何能得作此國？孰神与吾能相作此國耶？」是時，有光海依來之神。其神言：「能治我前者，吾能共与相作成。若不然者，國難成。」尒大國主神曰：「然者治奉之状奈何？」答言：「吾者，伊都岐奉于倭之青垣東山上。」此者坐御諸山上神也。
When Ohokuninushi no Kami was at the cape of Miho (御大) in Izumo, a god came riding the crests of the waves in a boat of heavenly kagaimo, clothed in the skin of a goose flayed off whole.
He asked the god his name, but the god did not answer. He asked the gods who were with him, but they all said that they did not know. Then the toad Tanigugu (多迩具久) said, "Kuebiko (久延毗古) will surely know this one."
So he called Kuebiko at once and asked him, and Kuebiko answered and said, "This is Sukunabikona no Kami (少名毗古那神), the child of Kamumusuhi no Kami."
So he told this to Kamumusuhi no Mioya no Mikoto, who answered and said, "This is truly my child. Among my children he is the one who 'kukishi' — slipped through between my fingers. So become brothers with Ashiharashikoo no Mikoto, and make that land and make it firm."
So from then on Ohoanamuji and Sukunabikona, the two gods, stood side by side and made this land and made it firm. Afterward Sukunabikona no Kami crossed over to the land of Tokoyo (常世國).
The one called Kuebiko, who made known and told of that Sukunabikona no Kami, is the scarecrow of the mountain fields today. This god cannot walk on his feet, yet he is a god who knows all things under heaven.
Then Ohokuninushi no Kami grieved and said, "How can I make this land alone? What god can make this land together with me?"
At that time there was a god who came drawing near, lighting up the sea. That god said, "If you serve me well before me, I will make it and complete it together with you. If not, the land will be hard to complete."
Ohokuninushi no Kami said, "Then how shall I serve you?" He answered and said, "Set me up and worship me on the mountain to the east, within the green hedge of Yamato."
This is the god who dwells on Mount Mimoro.

鵝皮 — the source text has 鵝, a goose. Some take it for a mistake for 蛾, a moth, and read “moth skin.” ― translator
