SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:13

¶ Y dijo Balac: Te ruego que vengas conmigo a otro lugar desde el cual lo veas; su extremidad solamente has visto, que no lo has visto todo; y desde allí me lo maldecirás.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Numbers 23:13

Verse 13. Thou shalt see but the utmost part of them]
Balak thought that the sight of such an immense camp had intimidated Balaam, and this he might gather from what he said in the tenth verse: Who can count the dust of Jacob, &c.; he thought therefore that he might get Balaam to curse them in detached parties, till the whole camp should be devoted to destruction by successive execrations.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 13. And
Balak said unto him , etc.] Seemingly satisfied with his answer, however, he could not help himself, and was willing to make the best of him he could, and try what he could do with him another time and elsewhere: come, I pray thee, with me unto another place, from whence thou mayest see them ; for he had a mighty notion that both the sight of the people, and the place from whence they were seen, would greatly contribute to answer the end he had in view, cursing the people: thou shall see but the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all ; for he thought, either that he was so charmed with so glorious a sight as the regular encampment of such a body of people was, that he could not find in his heart to curse them; or that he was so terrified at the sight of such a vast number of people, that he dared not attempt it; and therefore Balak proposed to have him to a place where he could only see a part of them and not the whole: and curse me them from thence : that part, hoping that when he had cursed them he would gradually go on till he had cursed them all: but there is this objection to our version, and the sense it directs to, that Balaam had been brought to a place already, where he had seen the utmost part of the people, ( Numbers 22:41) wherefore some read the middle clause in a parenthesis, and in the past tense “(for thou hast seen but the utmost part of them, and hast not seen them all)”; and therefore would have him come to a place where he might see them all, and curse them from thence.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 11-30 -
Balak was angry with Balaam. Thus a confession of God's overrulin power is extorted from a wicked prophet, to the confusion of a wicke prince. A second time the curse is turned into a blessing; and thi blessing is both larger and stronger than the former. Men change their minds, and break their words; but God never changes his mind, an therefore never recalls his promise. And when in Scripture he is sai to repent, it does not mean any change of his mind; but only a chang of his way. There was sin in Jacob, and God saw it; but there was no such as might provoke him to give them up to ruin. If the Lord see that we trust in his mercy, and accept of his salvation; that we indulge no secret lust, and continue not in rebellion, but endeavour to serve and glorify him; we may be sure that he looks upon us as accepte in Christ, that our sins are all pardoned. Oh the wonders of providenc and grace, the wonders of redeeming love, of pardoning mercy, of the new-creating Spirit! Balak had no hope of ruining Israel, and Balaa showed that he had more reason to fear being ruined by them. Sinc Balaam cannot say what he would have him, Balak wished him to saw nothing. But though there are many devices in man's heart, God' counsels shall stand. Yet they resolve to make another attempt, thoug they had no promise on which to build their hopes. Let us, who have promise that the vision at the end shall speak and not lie, continu earnest in prayer, Lu 18:1 __________________________________________________________________
