فَمَثَلِي وَمَثَلُكُمْ كَمَثَلِ يَعْقُوبَ وَبَنِيهِ،
My example and your example are like the example of Jacob and his sons.
فَمَثَلِي so my example
Here fa- is a light discourse 'so', easing into the comparison rather than marking a sharp consequence, and it sits on a noun ('example') carrying the -i 'my' ending. That possessive suffix attaches the noun to the speaker, setting up the first side of the 'my case versus yours' contrast.

مَثَلِي like me
A noun meaning 'likeness' carrying the -i 'my' ending, so literally 'my likeness', used here in the comparison 'like me'. The attached possessive ties the resemblance to the speaker, who is comparing the listener's way of working to his own.
