(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_lifted_up oracle_of,his and,he_said arise Bālāq and,hear give,ear to,me his/its=son Tsipōr/(Zippor) )
The author is using lifted up his oracle as a common expression of the culture to mean that Balaam began to speak a prophetic message. If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And he began his prophecy]
