Verse 12 is found in chapter 13 of Job. Job accuses his friends of being worthless physicians because they offer religious explanations without understanding his situation. He asks them to stop speaking for God and not defend divine justice through false arguments. The passage contains an important critique of theological speech: speaking rightly about God also requires respecting the truth of the particular case.

Eure Denksprüche sind Aschensprüche; eure Bollwerke werden wie Lehmhaufen sein.
Vuestras memorias serán comparadas a la ceniza, Y vuestros cuerpos como cuerpos de lodo.
Sus máximas son proverbios de ceniza; sus defensas son defensas de barro.
Vos sentences sont des sentences de cendre, Vos retranchements sont des retranchements de boue.
I vostri detti memorandi son simili a cenere; Ed i vostri sublimi ragionamenti a mucchi di fango
As vossas memórias são como provérbios de cinza; as vossas defesas como defesas de lodo.
你們可記念的諺語是灰燼的箴言; 你們的後盾是泥土的後盾。
