Your record reads:
June 5 born in Öfre Mölla and the 11th of the same month christened, tenant farmer Pehr Olson's and (his) wife Karna Pehrsdotter's daughter Karna. Christening witnesses/Godparents: the miller Ola Pehrsson in Skrinarp, farmhand (or bachelor) Sven Olsson of the same place, the hunter Ola Nilsson in Spånga, wife Botill Olasdotter in Nygård, wife Gunild Nilsdotter in Skrinarp, Sissa Jönsdotter in Spånga. The mother (is) 24 years (old).

Thank you! You are GOLD!!! Do you think the witnesses are of real importance to my research?

It is difficult to tell. Pehr Olsson could be the son of Ola Pehrsson or Ola Nilsson. Or Sven Olsson could be a brother to Pehr. There are lots of possible relationships in this record, but there is no way to tell, for sure, who is related to whom. And, sometimes the witnesses/godparents are simply neighbors or friends. If you find the same witness(es) showing up in multiple birth records, they are probably relatives, but the relationship needs to be proved using other records.
