  -> Ar you so sure? seen on a necklace, similiar to dog tags for us military

disagree  Eynati: Zecher davar, almost certainly. What IS your problem? I've seen Hebrew tattoos and medallions on non-Jews in the USA aplenty. Your comment is really funny from someone who keeps objecting to reasonable translations.

Biblical reference


Explanation:
These are quite likely the opening words (="Remember the word") of Psalms 19:49, which goes like this:

"Remember the word unto Thy servant, because Thou hast made me to hope."
And in Hebrew:

זכר דבר לעבדך על אשר יחלתני
