I struggled with this one too. Before seeing what exactly?
Maybe to avoid long wait times for the seal, they ask you to leave your book with them before you go into the temple.
For those who don’t know, 朱印帳 is a book where you collect seals from temples. I have one, and they’re all absolutely beautiful. Highly recommended!
So here’s my attempt at a translation:
Please leave your book with us before going in.
Please wait before looking at the red seal books.
私:おケーキいたしました。お召し上がりくださいませんか。
煉󠄁獄杏寿郎(れんごくきょうじゅろう):上手い。
@s1212z 翻訳は正しいかどうわからなくて、一緒に答えを待ちましょう。
I don’t know whether my translation is right, so let’s wait the answer together.
Before seeing the red stamps notebook, please make a deposit.
Edit: whoops, I misunderstood this one 
@matt_in_mito thanks for the explanation!
Isn’t it お～ください | Japanese Grammar SRS 
お～ください is in this sign as well, but we are referring to the use of 拝見 that is listed in the information section for いたす. This use of 拝見 is actually even more tricky than the regular usage, as it has to do with the temple itself. (see if you can guess from this)
Please leave your shrine stamp notebook here before visiting the temple/shrine. (Because they will fill the notebook during the visit I suppose)
I am wondering why there is no “の” between 拝見 and 前に ? It should be a verb then, but as 拝見 is a する verb, where is the する part ? It seems I missed something here
As for the seal stamp notebook, please make a deposit before viewing.
Seal stamp 300 yen
Seal stamp notebook 1000 yen

Me: I made a cake. Won’t you please have some?
Kyojuro Rengoku: Amazing/delicious!
I guess we’ll see the reveal shortly, I’m seeing everyone’s answers now. I assume ‘deposit’ for 預ける due to the costs thereafter. And I thought they didn’t want customers opening the book before buying it, but I never owned or used one of stamp books before. Sounds fun!
As for your stamp book, please entrust it to us before viewing (the temple)
November 27th Translation
Notes:
This is a unique usage of 拝見 that will almost exclusively be seen at temples, and other places that a ‘God’ is considered to reside. Because 拝見 is kenjougo (lowering your own status in order to elevate another), usually it will only be used by the speaker, to refer to their own actions. However, because a temple is a place that a God resides, you cannot elevate someone above the status of the God that they are going to see. So in this case, 拝見 actually refers to the action of the person being spoken to, in reference to that they are about to be in a place of worship.

I made a special order to the designer. It was just delivered today…

Yesterday I mistranslated. Since I didn’t know the “blockhead” word, I felt like a blockhead.
I sent a special order to the designer and it just came today…

This black ball, its something I’ve seen before
Whats your general translation tactic? Can you generally translate it yourself , do you look up a few words when necessary, do you just put the whole thing in Jisho? ‘Google’ the more random things or strange dialect words?
(of course, this will vary depending on the GITW itself).
Personally: I read it out allowed and immediately look up words I have no idea about, and try to translate it just by reading (sometimes guessing the meaning of a word/phrase if I know the kanji but not the word). This is like a quick ‘first draft’.
Then I put the whole thing into Jisho and go through again, writing down a literal translation, and then adjust it to sound natural.
I’m still fairly low on vocab, and just about to finish N4 grammar, so there’s only a handful I could translate completely on my own (which was exciting and depressing at the same time)
I’ve/You’ve/We’ve (Subject omitted) seen this black ball before.
We already saw something like these black balls, right?
