Numeri 23:18 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 23:18

And he took up his parable
Pronounced the word put into his mouth,

and said, rise up Balak, and hear;
not from his seat, as Eglon a successor of his did, ( Judges 3:20 ) for he was now standing by his burnt offering; but the sense is, that he would raise his attention, and stir up himself with all diligence to hear what he was about to say:

hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor;
or to his word, as the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan, which follow.

Numeri 23:18 In-Context

16 E il Signore si fece incontro a Balaam, e gli mise la parola in bocca; e gli disse: Ritorna a Balac, e parla così.
17 Ed egli se ne venne a Balac; ed egli se ne stava presso al suo olocausto, e con lui erano i principi di Moab. E Balac gli disse: Che ha detto il Signore?
18 Ed egli prese a proferir la sua sentenza, e disse: Levati, Balac, e ascolta! Porgimi gli orecchi, figliuolo di Sippor.
19 Iddio non è un uomo, ch’egli menta; Nè un figliuol d’uomo, ch’egli si penta. Avrà egli detta una cosa, e non la farà? Avrà egli parlato, e non atterrà la sua parola
20 Ecco, io ho ricevuta commissione di benedire; E poi ch’egli ha benedetto, io non posso impedir la sua benedizione.
