Dixitque ad Balaam : Misi nuntios ut vocarent te : cur non statim venisti ad me ? an quia mercedem adventui tuo reddere nequeo ?
dixitque ad Balaam: "Nonne misi nuntios, ut vocarem te? Cur non statim venisti ad me? An quia honorare te nequeo?".

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Balak said unto Balaam,.... Upon their meeting together:
did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? or "in sending send" u; the first messengers in a very pressing manner, with great importunity, to give thee an invitation to come to me, and those men of rank and quality, with rewards of divination in their hands, and yet the invitation was rejected; and after them other messengers, more in number and greater in dignity, with larger offers and promises; and now indeed thou art come, but with much ado, what is the meaning of all this?
wherefore camest thou not unto me? at first, without showing so much indifference and reluctance, and which obliged me to send another message to thee:
am I not able to promote thee to honour? to give thee wealth and riches, and put thee into high places of honour and profit? hadst thou any doubt in thy mind about it, either concerning my ability or will to do it?
u שלח שלחתי "mittendo misi", Pagninus, Montanus.
