These are the first instances of SHEEP and GOAT I could find.
 
 
 
NIV Genesis 12:16
 16.  He treated Abram well for her sake, and Abram acquired sheep and cattle, male and female donkeys, menservants and maidservants, and camels.
 
NIV Genesis 15:6-9
 6.  Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness.
 7.  He also said to him, "I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to take possession of it."
 8.  But Abram said, "O Sovereign LORD, how can I know that I will gain possession of it?"
 9.  So the LORD said to him, "Bring me a heifer, a goat and a ram, each three years old, along with a dove and a young pigeon."
