Quae postquam Massiva agitare coepit neque Iugurthae in amicis satis praesidi est, quod eorum alium conscientia, alium mala fama et timor inpediebat, Bomilcari proxumo ac maxume fido sibi imperat, pretio, sicuti multa confecerat, insidiatores Massivae paret ac maxume occulte, sin id parum procedat, quovis modo Numidam interficiat.
After Massiva began to take action and Jugurtha found insufficient support in his friends because some were hampered by a guilty conscience, others by talk of scandal and fear, Jugurtha ordered Bomilcar, his closest and most trusted attendant, to arrange assassins to murder Massiva for a price (his method in the past for accomplishing a great deal) and to kill the Numidian preferably in secret, but if that proved unsuccessful, in any way at all.
