According to a special "genealogy dictionary" written by John Follesdal, available at

http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~norway/na17.html

Utskriftens
underskrift =signature
underskrive =to sign

riktighet
riktig =correct

bevidnes
bevis =proof

hermed -- I didn't find anything close.

Someone else on the site will probably be able to give you an exact translation, but this gives some idea ...
