John Gill Commentary Numbers 24:11

"Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honor; but, lo, Jehovah hath kept thee back from honor." — Numbers 24:11 (ASV)

Therefore now flee you to your place
His own country, from where Balak has sent for him, and he came; begone directly, make all haste away; he speaks as one so provoked, that he could not bear him in his presence, and as threatening him if he did not at once get out of his sight:

I thought to promote you unto great honour ;
to bestow much wealth and riches upon him, and to prefer him in his court to high offices of honour and dignity; he had promised that he would, and he thought as he said, he was determined upon it, had he performed as he expected:

but, lo, the Lord has kept you back from honour ;
the Lord you have so much talked of, and at whose beck and command you have been, and by whom you have been checked and controlled, he has hindered you from riches and honour; see what you have got, or rather lost, by hearkening to him, and how he will pay you for it.
