Translate Norwegian in birth record
I'm looking for help with a few words in a birth record found here:
The scanned record shows this is birth of Ernst Heinrich Ziel Sengebusch, illegitimate child of "Lanosen ?" Wilhelm Georg Christoph. Smet Sengebusch & maid Agnete Hansd Tingvolstuen, "Bagger 2nd L??".
What are the words before the father's name and after the mother's name? Thanks for your help!!

There is another version of this record here: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/9357/7.
It is a little clearer. It says the word preceding the father's name is "Landhandler = Country merchant".
In the record you provided, the term after the mother's name is "begges 2dt leiermaal" which is "(for) both, 2nd leiermål (lejermål)". The Family Search Wiki Norwegian word list defines lejermål as "unlawful and punishable sexual union outside of marriage".

Thank you! I was able to find the 1st child of this unmarried couple, and I wouldn't have looked without this clue. Thanks.
