Exegesis
The prohibitive clause ʾal timnaʿ {אַל־תִּמְנַ֥ע | ʾal tim-naʿ} ‘do not withhold’ is bookended by mimeni {מִ֝מֶּ֗נִּי | mim-mēnî} ‘from me’, forming a chiasm that intensifies the plea.
In context — Proverbs 30:7
Two things I have asked from You ; do not withhold them from me before I die .
