Then the LORD opened the mouth of the donkey, and it said to Balaam, “What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?”

Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road, with his drawn sword in his hand, and he bowed down, falling on his face.

The angel of the LORD said to him, “Why have you struck your donkey these three times? I have come out as an adversary because your way is perverse before me.

But the donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not your donkey, which you have ridden all your life to this day? Have I been in the habit of treating you this way?” And he said, “No.”

Balaam said to the donkey, “Because you have made a fool of me! I wish I had a sword in my hand! I would kill you right now!”

When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, it lay down under Balaam, and Balaam’s anger was kindled, and he struck the donkey with his staff.
