Your maxims are proverbs of ashes; your defenses are defenses of clay.
In context
10 Surely He would rebuke you if you secretly showed partiality.
11 Would His majesty not terrify you? Would the dread of Him not fall upon you?
12 Your maxims are proverbs of ashes; your defenses are defenses of clay.
13 Be silent, and I will speak. Then let come to me what may.
14 Why do I put myself at risk and take my life in my own hands?
