English · Metsudah Chumash, Metsudah Publications, 2009
And now, please come and curse this nation for me, for it is too mighty for me, perhaps it will enable us to strike at him, and banish them from the land; for I know, that whomever you bless is blessed, and whomever you curse is cursed.”

And now, come, I pray you, and curse this people for me, for it is too strong for me. Perhaps I shall be able to smite it and drive it from the land. For I know [by your having helped Sichon to defeat Moav (see 21:27)] that what you bless is blessed and what you curse is cursed.

Come now therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people; for they are too mighty for me; peradventure I shall prevail, that we may smite them, and that I may drive them out of the land; for I know that he whom thou blessest is blessed, and he whom thou cursest is cursed.’

Viens donc, je te prie, et maudis-moi ce peuple, car il est plus puissant que moi: peut-être parviendrai-je à le vaincre et le repousserai-je du pays. Car, je le sais, celui que tu bénis est béni, et celui que tu maudis est maudit."

I tak przyjdźże, przeklnij mi ten lud, - gdyż potężniejszym on odemnie, - może wtedy zdołam pokonać go, i wypędzić z ziemi tej; bo ja wiem, że komu błogosławisz, błogosławiony jest, a kogo przeklinasz, ten przeklęty!"

Komme nun doch, verfluche mir dieses Volk, denn es ist mächtiger als ich; vielleicht vermag ich es dann zu schlagen, dass ich es vertreibe aus dem Lande; denn ich weiß, wen du segnest, der ist gesegnet, und wen du verfluchst, der ist verflucht.

Nun venu do, malbenu al mi tiun popolon, ĉar ĝi estas pli forta ol mi; eble tiam mi povos venkobati ĝin kaj elpeli ĝin el la lando; ĉar mi scias, ke kiun vi benas, tiu estas benita, kaj kiun vi malbenas, tiu estas malbenita.

Commentaires sur Nombres 22:6
Rashi
English
[Enable] us to strike at him. My people and I will strike at them. Another interpretation: This term is found in the Mishnah, “He reduces the price for him” — to diminish them a little.
For I know, etc. Through the war of Sichon, whom you assisted in striking down Moav.

Targum Jonathan
English
But now, I entreat, come, curse this people for me, for they are stronger than I, if I may but be able to meet them, though smaller than they, and drive them from the land. For I know that he whom thou dost bless is blessed, and he whom thou dost curse is cursed.

ארה לי. לשון צווי מפעלי הכפל בחסרון אות הכפל וכן קבה לי והנה קוב על משקל שמור וקבה לי בחסרון הה"א על דרך משקל שכב רכב צלח:
נכה בו. שם הפועל ואין טענה בעבור היותו בה"א כי הנה כמוהו לכלה הפשע:
יואר. הוי"ו הנח הנעלם תחת הדגש שהוא תחת אות הכפל כמו על כמון יושב ולא היה כמוהו מאותו בנין בעבור אות הגרון כמשפט:

THAT WE MAY SMITE THEM — the meaning [of the plural “we,” although it is only Balaam who is speaking], is “I and Midian my ally.”

Rashbam
English
את אשר תבורך, by means of prophetic inspiration. Balak also knew that Bileam was a prophet and practiced foretelling future events by resorting to such tools of his trade as קסמים, charms of different sorts. This is the reason why in Joshua 13,22 Bileam is described as a קוסם, a sorcerer, someone working with charms. Up until now Balak had thought that his prayers and sacrifices would be enough to ward off the danger he thought the Jewish people posed for him and his country.

Sforno
English
אולי אוכל, after you have cursed them.
נכה בו, I militarily and you by means of curses.
אשר תברך מבורך, actually Bileam’s power did not consist in blessing but in cursing people by mentioning their failings at a critical moment in G’d’s timetable, as elaborated on by our sages in B’rachot 7. This is why Balak did not demand a blessing from Bileam to make him victorious in war, or at least to be blessed so that he could fight the Israelites to a standstill. But when he nonetheless added the words ידעתי את אשר תברך מבורך, he did so only as a way of flattering Bileam.

Da'at Zekenim
English
וארגשנו מן הארץ, “so that I will be able to expel them from the land.” He did not mean to exterminate them but merely to chase them away from land which was his. According to Rashi, he referred specifically to that part of Moav which Sichon had many years earlier conquered from Moav.
כי ידעתי את אשר תברך מבורך, “for I know that the ones whom you bless will be blessed.” Bileam (one of the people speaking in parables) had prophesied earlier that Moav would become a victim of Sichon, as we know from Numbers 21,27)
