Who, when they were come to Balaam, said: Thus saith Balac the son of Sephor, Delay not to come to me:

And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: Suffer not thyself, I pray thee, to be restrained from coming to me;

and they come in unto Balaam, and say to him, 'Thus said Balak son of Zippor, Be not, I pray thee, withheld from coming unto me,

And they came to Balaam and said, Balak, son of Zippor, says, Let nothing keep you from coming to me:

And when these had come to Balaam, they said: "So says Balak, the son of Zippor. Do not hesitate to come to me.

Qui venientes ad Balaam dixerunt ei, Sic dixit Balac filius Sippor, Noli quaeso prohibere teipsum ne venias ad me:

And they came to Balaam, and said to him, Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor, (h) Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me:
(h) The wicked seek by all means to further their naughty enterprises, though they know that God is against them.

And they came to Balaam,.... Though men of such rank and dignity, they did not decline the embassy, being sent by their king; nor did they think it below them to wait upon this soothsayer:
and said unto him, thus saith Balak the son of Zippor; representing their master, and addressing the diviner in his name, as his ambassadors; at the same time doing honour to Balak that sent them, of whom they speak respectfully, and to Balaam, to whom they were sent:
let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me; no business, though ever so important, that might be upon his hands; nor any want of respect to him he might imagine; nor if the rewards offered were not thought sufficient; nor any persuasions of men to the contrary; and if it could be thought he knew anything of the prohibition of God, that may be included; so urgent was he upon his coming to him.
