Exegesis
The pronominal suffix in meni {מֶֽנִּי | menî} expresses the speaker’s personal separation. The verse’s antithetical parallelism contrasts the limited control of the wicked with the speaker’s deliberate distancing.
In context — Job 21:16
Behold, their prosperity is not in their own hand; the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
