Oyewale Dairo's comment on 2011-11-29 10:41:55:
A lien is a legal claim or a "hold" on some type of property, whether personal or real property, making it collateral against monies or services owed to another person or entity." Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold." It should mean "Though your possessions consists of clay pots(Cheap possessions), you shall yet be fabulously wealthy."
