Indeed this, my brother, has ninety-nine ewes, and I have one ewe; meaning
*23) "Brother" dces not mean a real brother but a brother-in-faith and a member of one's own clan.
*24) To understand what follows one should note that the complainant did not say that the other person had taken away his only ewe and added it to his own ewes, but said that he was asking for it, and since he was a powerful person he had prevailed over him in the matter and he could not reject his demand, being a weak and poor man.
