looping and saving output of each line separately

I have been trying this program for a long time. I am trying to read a file named "odon" line by line; read the first line, send it to do a command saved in a file "perm", once the first line has finished going through the content of the file perm, the result is saved with the number of the line. Once that is done, the script reads the second line and repeats the process until all the lines have been read, sent to the other file and the output saved. This is what I mean:

Code:

read line 12 1 1, send it into file "perm" which contains a command, then the output is saved as beta. The next file as beta1, the next file as beta2 etc. The content of perm will output "beta" when it is read in the right way. I used only one 12 1 1 and it gave me beta, but to read each line and save with different names is proving difficult.
This is what I have done so far:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
for i in 'cat odon'
do echo $i | ./perm $i > $i
cp beta beta.$i
done

This does not seem to work as I want. I would appreciate your contribution. Thanks
