Vulgate (Clementine)
Dixitque ad Balaam : Misi nuntios ut vocarent te : cur non statim venisti ad me ? an quia mercedem adventui tuo reddere nequeo ?
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ εἶπεν Βαλὰκ πρὸς Βαλαάμ Οὐχὶ ἀπέστειλα πρὸς σὲ καλέσαι σε; διὰ τί οὐκ ἤρχου πρὸς μέ; οὐ δυνήσομαι ὄντως τιμῆσαί σε;
Hebrew (WLC)
וַיֹּ֨אמֶר בָּלָ֜ק אֶל בִּלְעָ֗ם הֲלֹא֩ שָׁלֹ֨חַ שָׁלַ֤חְתִּי אֵלֶ֨יךָ֙ לִקְרֹא לָ֔ךְ לָ֥מָּה לֹא הָלַ֖כְתָּ אֵלָ֑י הַֽאֻמְנָ֔ם לֹ֥א אוּכַ֖ל כַּבְּדֶֽךָ
