Ento Balao disse a Balaque: Eis que eu tenho vindo a ti; porventura poderei eu agora de alguma forma falar alguma coisa? A palavra que Deus puser na minha boca essa falarei.
Respondeu Balao a Balaque: Eis-me perante ti; acaso, poderei eu, agora, falar alguma coisa? A palavra que Deus puser na minha boca, essa falarei.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Balaam said unto Balak, lo, I am come unto thee,.... And therefore let nothing more be said of what is past: and as for future things,
have I now any power at all to say anything? that would be agreeable to the king, and answer his purpose in sending for him, namely, to curse the people of Israel; he suggests that he had not, he was under the powerful restraint of God; he could not say what he himself was inclined to say, and what the king would have him say, and he expected he should; he could not say as some in Psalms 12:4: the word
that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak; whether agreeable to Balak's will and design or not, and whether for or against Israel: however, it being expressed in such indefinite terms might leave room for Balak to hope it might answer his expectations and wishes.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 22:38. The word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak. — Here was a noble resolution, and he was certainly faithful to it: though he wished to please the king, and get wealth and honour, yet he would not displease God to realize even these bright prospects. Many who slander this poor semi-antinomian prophet, have not half his piety.
