Some phrases in a 1673 Alsace marriage record
First time I have transcribed a record from Niederhausbergen, Alsace and it has some bolded words I couldn't make out. From: Not critical for vital information, but I'm curious about the formulas used. Any suggestions/corrections welcome!

Here is my transcription of the sentence in brackets:
(sr [seiner?] Religion nach ein Pontificius, hat aber Vor der HochZeit versprochen beÿdes mir, als dem Pfarrer U. auch dem hochgeehrten Hrn [Herren] Amptmann, dem Hrn Wayer?, zu unserer Evangelisch lehre u. Religion mit nächstem
zu?geben u. dieselbige anzunehmen )Translation:
(according to his religion a "papal" [i.e. catholic], but he has promised both to me the pastor as well as to the honorable bailiff Mr. Wayer? before the marriage that he will __ to our Protestant doctrine and religion and accept it).
The word between nächstem and geben is in the fold and impossible to read fully.
The last sentences are:
Gott der geber alles Guts verleihe Ihnen se [seine] göttlich genad, hülff u. seeg, daß sie geistlich mit einand leben mögen. Dem HochZeiter aber wolle Gott beÿ sm [seinem] guten Verspruch erhalten, u. sn [sein] gemüth u. ♥ [Herz] also regieren, [daß] Er d[en]selbigen ins werk möge setzen.
Translation:
God the giver of all things, may He give them God’s grace, help and blessing so that they may live spiritually with one another. But may God keep the groom with his good promise, and may He govern his mind and heart so that he may bring it into effect.
Note that there are apparently some scribal shortcuts, one for the prefix ver- (versprochen, verleihe) and another for sein- (seiner, seine).

@Ulrich Neitzel , that's fantastic, thank you! I had totally missed the underlying issue of his religion.
