Some years ago I was discussing here the meaning of the suffix *-'e'* and I got, as always, very helpful answers. However, I find from time to time canonical examples that I cannot understand completely.

It would be great if someone could explain the meaning of *-'e'* in these two excerpts of the paq'batlh:

Dung qo’ lupawDI’ chaH
qeylIS qorDu’Daj je ta’’e’ neH
bop bommey
(paq'raD 9, 4-6)

veng ’elDI’ ghaH
pawpa’ ghaH’e’
paw lutDaj ’e’ Sov qeylIS
(paq'raD 10, 1-3)

Thank you very much!
