I think you've made exactly the same mistake here. Also, the outer brackets 
are superfluous. You probably want:

  let line = Scanf.sscanf line "%d\t%d\t%d\t%d" createErgebnis in
  line :: readErgebnisse fh (number-1)

but it depends whether you wanted to recurse first or read a line first (I 
can't tell from your code and neither can the compiler).
