The sed script should contain sed commands, not shell commands. You could also pass these to sed without reading from a file with the "-e" flag.

script:
=======
s/this/that/
s/LuxuryYacht/ThroatWobblerMangrove/g
=======

sed -e 's/this/that/' -e 's/LuxuryYacht/ThroatWobblerMangrove/g' infile > outfile
