Exegesis
In the first clause, zikhroneikhem {זִֽ֭כְרֹנֵיכֶם | zikrōnêkem} functions as the topic and mishlei-efer {מִשְׁלֵי־אֵ֑פֶר | mišlê-ʾēp̄er} as its predicate in a construct chain that evokes memories dispersing like ash.
In context — Job 13:12
Your remembrances are sayings of ash; your defenses are defenses of clay.
