וַיַּ֣עַן בִּלְעָ֔ם וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֶל־בָּלָ֑ק הֲלֹ֗א דִּבַּ֤רְתִּי אֵלֶ֙יךָ֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר כֹּ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־יְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֹת֥וֹ אֶֽעֱשֶֽׂה׃
Sumagot si Balaam at sinabi kay Balak: “Hindi ba't sinabi ko na sa iyo: ‹Ang lahat ng sasabihin ng Walang-Hanggan, iyon ang aking gagawin›?”
Or HaChaim
ויען בלעם…לאמור Bileam replied…saying, etc. What is the meaning of the word לאמור, in this context? To whom was Balak supposed to relate Bileam's words? Bileam meant that what he had told Balak previously was to make plain to Balak that he, Bileam, had to curse or to bless at G'd's whim, that he was not free to even keep his mouth shut.
