Paraphrase

A tabular list of sheep and goats for regular (ginê) and occasional (guqqû) offerings from Cyr 9.III. They are set aside (parāsu) for (lapāni) the offering shepherds (rē'i ginê).

It is tabulated by day from 1 to 29, usually amounting to 5 (males?/sheep?) and 4 (females?/goats?). Only on days 10 and 12 are the numbers significantly different showing 8 and 11.
