Translation/Transcription help
I need help with this 1644 marriage? record of Jacob Dietz of Birlenbach at
Wissembourg, Bas-Rhin. I would be very grateful as I am using it for clues beyond just the fact of the marriage.
Thanks for any help!

@Phil McManus, here is a link to the Germany group for future help with German-language records: https://community.familysearch.org/en/group/88-germany-genealogy-research
It also always helps to include a link to where you found the record online, as the image quality is generally better and it makes it possible to compare the handwriting to other entries. This record is actually a baptism, not a marriage, and states:
On 7 April, a little daughter of Jacob Dietz of Birlenbach and of Margretha, his wife, was baptized. The godparents were Christoph Härtel, the miller's son; a daughter of Michael Tettruch(?) the bellringer in St. Michael; and a surviving daughter of the deceased Mr. M. Ludtwig Gauettlern(?), former pastor in Rottbach [Rothbach, about 26 km SW of Birlenbach]. The child's name is Maria Margretha.
