חָלִ֨לָה לְּךָ֜ מֵעֲשֹׂ֣ת ׀ כַּדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֗ה לְהָמִ֤ית צַדִּיק֙ עִם־רָשָׁ֔ע וְהָיָ֥ה כַצַּדִּ֖יק כָּרָשָׁ֑ע חָלִ֣לָה לָּ֔ךְ הֲשֹׁפֵט֙ כָּל־הָאָ֔רֶץ לֹ֥א יַעֲשֶׂ֖ה מִשְׁפָּֽט׃
Malayo nawa sa iyo ang gumawa ng ganitong bagay, na patayin ang matuwid na kasama ng masama, na anupa't ang matuwid ay maging gaya ng masama; malayo nawa iyan sa iyo. Hindi ba't ang Hukom ng buong lupa ay gagawa ng katarungan?

חלילה לך FAR BE IT FROM THEE — It is a profanation (חולין) of Yourself. People will say, “That is what He usually busies Himself with: He destroys every one, righteous and wicked alike” —and thus did You indeed do to the generation of the Flood and to that of the dispersal of nations (Midrash Tanchuma, Vayera 8).
Ibn Ezra
Far be it: [This term refers to] something that is impossible. Some understand the word to be related to 'hollow', i.e. something that is empty.
Rashbam
השופט כל הארץ, a reference to the angels whom G’d had dispatched as His representatives, לא יעשה משפט, “will not mete out fair justice?”
