World English Bible

Balaam said to Balak, "Behold, I have come to you: have I now any power at all to speak anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that shall I speak."

He answered him: Lo, here I am: shall I have power to speak any other thing but that which God shall put in my mouth?

Webster's Bible Translation

And Balaam said to Balak, Lo, I have come to thee: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:38

Y Balaam respondió a Balac: He aquí yo he venido a ti; mas ¿podré ahora hablar alguna cosa? La palabra que Dios pusiere en mi boca, esa hablaré.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Numbers 22:38

Verse 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.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 38. And
Balaam said unto Balak, lo, I am come unto thee , etc.] 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 ( Psalm 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.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 36-41 -
Balak has now nothing to complain of, but that Balaam did not com sooner. Balaam bids Balak not depend too much upon him. He seems to speak with vexation; but is really as desirous to please Balak, as eve he had pretended to be to please God. See what need we have to pra every day, Our Father which art in heaven, lead us not into temptation Let us be jealous over our own hearts, seeing how far men may go in the knowledge of God, and yet come short of Divine grace __________________________________________________________________
