Exegesis
The first colon fronts the object akhay {אַ֭חַי | ʾaḥay} ‘my brothers’ and immediately anchors the separation with the prepositional phrase me’alay {מֵעָלַ֣י | mēʿālay} ‘from upon me,’ before the verb hirchiq {הִרְחִ֑יק | hirḥîq} supplies the action; the third person singular subject is implicit and, in the surrounding discourse, refers to God as the one behind Job’s losses.
Root and etymology
consonantsresh–chet–qof
“to be far, make distant”
In context — Job 19:13
My brothers, He has put far from me, and my acquaintances are surely estranged from me.
