Numbers 22:26-28

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ Then the angel of the Lord moved on ahead. He stood in a narrow place. There was no room to turn, either right or left. ²⁷ The donkey saw the angel of the Lord. So it lay down under Balaam. That made him angry. He hit the donkey with his walking stick. ²⁸ Then the Lord opened the donkey’s mouth. It said to Balaam, “What have I done to you? Why did you hit me these three times?”
