I think you did a very good job!
This is 1736, so 2nd Sunday after Trinitatis would be June 10, according to the calendar at Trinitatis.no
"af Anders Knudsens Datr Fru Maren, ibidem" = by Anders Knudsens Daughter mrs Maren, from the same place
3rd witness: Michel Jensen's f.k. (= føderådskarl*) Jens Jochumsen
4th and 5th witness: ?????en's f:p: (= føderådspige*) Karen Andersdatter and Michel Jensen's f:p: Karen Hansdatter, alle fra Havbølle (= all from Havbølle).*) Føderådskarl/føderådspige = person who has the right to housing, food etc. according to an agreement made when the farm got a new owner. Kindly, Anne-Kathrine1 -
So Michel Jensen is not a witness, but Jens Jochumsen and Karen Hansdatter are his "føderåds"-people. The person granting "føderåd" to Karen Andersdatter, might be represented not by name, but by his profession.

The year of this record is 1756, so the 2nd Sunday past Trinity would be 27 June.
@Anne-Kathrine Henriksen Thank you for the explanation of the "f:k" and "f:p"! I did not know about that.

Same Page opposite side
”…. t. i Humble Præstegd…..”
I read it as t. = tjenende
t.k. = tjenestekarl
t.p. = tjenestepige
føderådskarl / føderådspige is Norwegian, this is a Danish Churchbook
