Numbers 22:26-28

Contemporary English Version

²⁶ The angel moved once more and stood in a spot so narrow that there was no room for the donkey to go around. ²⁷ So it just lay down. Balaam lost his temper, then picked up a stick and whacked the donkey.

²⁸ When that happened, the Lord told the donkey to speak, and it asked Balaam, “What have I done that made you beat me three times?”
