Job 13:12

Your words of remembrance (chronicles) [Est. 6:1] are proverbs in ashes [emptiness],
your defensive walls (defense and "argumentation") are like a clay shard [easily broken].
[Here Job could pick up a handful of ashes and let them sift through his hands. Then perhaps he picked up a clay shard and broke it, see Job 2:8.]
