Contextual Overview
1 Then did the sons of Israel break up, - and encamp in the waste plains of Moab, on the other side of the Jordan by Jericho. 2 And Balak son of Zipper saw all that Israel had done unto the Amorites; 3 and Moab shrank with great fear from the presence of the people because, many, they were, - and Moab was alarmed at the presence of the sons of Israel. 4 So Moab said unto the elders of Midian - Now, shall the gathered host lick up all that are round about us, as the ox doth lick up the verdure of the field. But, Balak son of Zippor, was king unto Moab at that time. 5 So he sent messengers unto Balaam son of Boor, to Pethor which was by the river of the land of the sons of his people to call him, - saying Lo! a people, hath come forth out of Egypt Lo! he hath covered the eye of the land, Yea he, is tarrying over against me. 6 Now, therefore, do come, I pray thee curse me this people. For stronger, he is than I, If peradventure I prevail, we shall smite him, That I may drive him out of the land, - For I know that, he whom thou dost bless, is to be blessed, And the whom thou dost curse, is to be cursed. 7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian went their way, with the rewards of divination in their hand, - so they came in unto Balaam, and spake unto him the words of Balak. 8 And he said unto them - Tarry ye here for the night, and I will bring you back word, as Yahweh shall speak unto me. So the princes of Moab abode with Balaam. 9 And God came in unto Balaam, - and said, Who are these men with thee? 10 Then said Balaam unto God, - Balak, son of Zipper king of Moab, hath sent unto me:

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Balaam rose up in the morning,.... With the impression of the dream upon his mind, and of what had passed between God and him in it:
and said unto the princes of Balak; which shows what the elders were that were sent, of what honour and dignity, and may include both those of Moab and of Midian:
get you into your land; as soon as you can; set forward on your journey, it is to no purpose to stay here:
for the Lord refuseth to give me leave to go with you; he only relates one part of the answer he had from the Lord, respecting his going with them, but says not a word of his being forbid to curse Israel, and of the reason given why he should not; had he reported this, in all probability it would have prevented any further application to him, and so any attempt to get this done, which Balaam seemed aware of; and therefore, by concealing this, hoped for fresh solicitations and entreaties, and that in time the Lord might be prevailed on to let him go and curse them; he having a covetous desire of riches, honour, and preferment, in Balak's court.
