Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Balak said unto Balaam, what hast thou done unto me?.... Or "for me" f; nothing at all, to answer his purpose, or his end in sending for him;

I took thee to curse mine enemies: so he calls the Israelites, though they had never done him any wrong; nor committed any acts of hostility against him, nor showed any intention to commit any; nay, were forbidden by the Lord their God to contend in battle with him and his people;

and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether; or, "in blessing blessed" g, done nothing but bless them, and that with many blessings, or pronounced them blessed, and prophesied of their blessedness, for their number, their safety, and of their happiness, not only in life, but at and after death.

f לי "pro me". g ברכת ברך "benedixisti benedicendo", Pagninus, Montanus, Piscator.
