Numbers 22:26-28

International Standard Version

²⁶ Then the angel of the Lord went along a little further and stood in a much narrower space, where it was impossible^[a] to turn either right or left. ²⁷ When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, she crouched down under Balaam. As a result, Balaam got so angry that he started to whip^[b] the donkey with his staff.

²⁸ That’s when the Lord enabled the donkey to speak.^[c] She asked Balaam, “What did I do to you that you would beat me in the space of only^[d] three footsteps?”
