Números 23:26 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 23:26

But Balaam answered and said unto Balak, told not I thee
He appeals to him for his honesty and faithfulness, for honest and faithful he would be thought to be, both to God and man; that when he first met him, he plainly told him what he must expect: from him:

saying, all that the Lord speaketh, that I must do;
which was very true, he was obliged to do as he had bid him, and speak what he had said unto him, though it was sore against his will; he would fain both have spoken and done otherwise, if he might have been permitted.

Números 23:26 In-Context

24 He aquí el pueblo, que como león se levantará, Y como león se erguirá: No se echará hasta que coma la presa, Y beba la sangre de los muertos.

25 Entonces Balac dijo á Balaam: Ya que no lo maldices, ni tampoco lo bendigas.

26 Y Balaam respondió, y dijo á Balac: ¿No te he dicho que todo lo que Jehová me dijere, aquello tengo de hacer?

27 Y dijo Balac á Balaam: Ruégote que vengas, te llevaré á otro lugar; por ventura parecerá bien á Dios que desde allí me lo maldigas.

28 Y Balac llevó á Balaam á la cumbre de Peor, que mira hacia Jesimón.
