This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

But the counsel of the wicked is far from me - Sarcastically quoting Job’s words, Job 21:14, Job 21:16. Job, having in the preceding chapter described the wicked, who said unto the Almighty, “Depart from us,” etc., adds, But the counsel of the wicked is far from me. Eliphaz here, having described the impious, among whom he evidently ranks Job, makes use of the same expression, as if he had said, “Thank God, I have no connection with you nor your companions, nor is my mind contaminated by your creed.”
