And he went vp hyer. ⁴ But God met Balaam, & [Balaam] sayd vnto hym: I haue prepared seuen aulters, and haue offred vpon euery aulter an oxe and a ramme. ⁵ And the Lorde put a saying in Balaams mouth, and sayde: Go agayne to Balac, and say on this wyse. ⁶ And when he went agayne vnto him, lo, he stoode by his burnt sacrifice, he and all the lordes of Moab. ⁷ And he toke vp his parable, and sayd: Balac the king of Moab hath brought me fro Mesopotamia, out of the mountaynes of the east, [saying] Come, curse Iacob for my sake, come and defie Israel. ⁸ Howe shall I curse hym, whom God hath not cursed? or howe shall I defie hym, whom God hath not defied? ⁹ For from the toppe of the rockes I see hym, and from the hylles I beholde hym: lo, the people shall dwell by them selues, and shal not be reckened among the nations. ¹⁰ Who can tell the dust of Iacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? I pray God that my soule may dye the death of the righteous, and that my last ende may be like his.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he answered and said,.... By reply to Balak:

must I not take heed to speak that which the Lord hath put in my mouth? pretending a great regard to the word of God, and to great carefulness to speak it, exactly and punctually as he received it, whereas he was forced to it, and could not do otherwise.
