Yes, you are correct. The direct translation is "urskulda" which is a Swedish word meaning "justify" or "excuse".

In Norwegian unskyld means i'm sorry which corresponds to german.

Many of these words just change a bit over time like geld/gjeld which is money in German and debt in Norwegian.

That sounds like "Unschuld" = innocence in German.
