I am looking for the death record of a Brita Pehrsson. She was born 19 March 1767 in Floda, Kopperberg. The parents names in FamilySearch are Pehr Ersson and Brita Pehrsdotter. This is the birth record I found for her. Floda församling, C Födelse-och dopböker, volume 4, 1755-1775. Born 19 March 1767, christened 20 March 1767.

This same couple had another daughter, named Brita, who was born in 1769. So, figuring the first Brita died before 1769, I started looking for a death record. This is what I found in Kopparberg, Church Records, 1604-1900, page 85.

I think what is says is that Brita died on 5 May 1767 and was buried on 10 May 1767, parents are Pehr Ersson and Brita Pehrsdotter on the farm Mössel., and that she was 6 weeks and 4 days old? I can't make out any of the words on the second line of her death record to use Google Translate. Is there anyone who can read this handwriting and confirm or correct my guesses at what the entry is saying?
Thank you!

I agree with your interpretation that the death record is for the same Brita. Here is the transcription:
Brita, Pehr Ers[sons] och hu[stru] Brita Pehrsdr ifrån Mossel Nata d 18 Martii _? Renata Siuk i 5 dygn af håll och stygn aetas 6 [weeks] 4 [days]
Translation:
Brita, [daughter of] Pehr Ersson and Brita Pehrsdotter from Mossel. Born 18 March __? baptized. Sick for five days of "hold and stiches". Age 6 weeks, 4 days.
