quran:38:23 –

Indeed this, my brother, has ninety-nine ewes, and I have one ewe; so he said, 'Entrust her to me,' and he overpowered me in speech."  

‘Behold, this brother of mine, in other words, my fellow co-religionist, has ninety-nine ewes — here used to represent the women — while I have a single ewe; yet he said, “Entrust it to me”, in other words, make me in charge of it, and he overcame me in speech’, in other words, in the argument; so the latter conceded charge of it to him.
القرآن:٣٨:٢٣ –

إِنَّ هَٰذَا أَخِي لَهُ تِسْعٌ وَتِسْعُونَ نَعْجَةً وَلِيَ نَعْجَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَقَالَ أَكْفِلْنِيهَا وَعَزَّنِي فِي الْخِطَابِ  

{إن هذا أخي} أي على ديني {له تسع وتسعون نعجة} يعبر بها عن المرأة {وليَ نعجة واحدة فقال أكفلنيها} أي اجعلني كافلها {وعزني} غلبني {في الخطاب} أي الدال، وأقره الآخر على ذلك.
