From Skanoteka.

Akta 5 is my great-grandfather’s second-cousin’s 1881 birth record from Zaręby Kościelne, Łomza, Poland. I would be grateful if someone could translate it in full (or at least everything that isn’t the standard wording of a birth record).

Names that I would expect to see in the text are:
- the child: Chaja Mirka ROZENTAL;
- her father: Icek ROZENTAL, son of Fiszel & Sura Ryfka;
- her mother: Beyla Pesla ZAREMBER, daughter of Juśk & Zelda.

Thanks so much! Hopefully the handwriting isn’t too hard to read.

№5. Посад Зарембы Костельныя. 22 мая /3 июня 1881 года.
Явился лично Ицек Розенталь, торговец, 20 лет, проживающий в этом посаде и в присутствии свидетелей: Янкель Зильберберг, сапожника, 32 года и Шайка Крамаровича, домовладельца, 50 лет и предъявили нам младенца женского пола, объявляя ,что она родилась в посаде Зарембы Костельныя
3/15 ноября 1880 года в 8 часов утра от законной его жены Бейли , урождённой Зарембер, 19 лет. Младенцу этому при религиозном обряде, совершенном 5/17 ноября 1880 года даны имена Хая-Мирка.
Опоздание в составлении акта последовало от долговременного отсутствия объявляющего (отца ребенка).
Акт подписан отцом ребенка: Ицек Розенталъ.
======================================
No. 5. The settlement of Zaremby Kościelne. May 22 / June 3, 1881.
Personally appeared Itsek Rozental, a merchant, aged 20, residing in this settlement, accompanied by witnesses—Yankel Zilberberg, a shoemaker, aged 32, and Shayka Kramarovich, a homeowner, aged 50—who presented to us a female infant, declaring that she was born in the settlement of Zaremby Kościelne on November 3/15, 1880, at 8 o'clock in the morning, to his lawful wife Beyla, née Zarember, aged 19.
During the religious ceremony performed on November 5/17, 1880, the infant was given the names Khaya-Mirka.
The delay in drawing up the record was caused by the prolonged absence of the declarant (the child's father).
The record is signed by the child's father: Itsek Rozental.
