Numbers 22:23-25

New International Version

²³ When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord standing in the road with a drawn sword^(A) in his hand, it turned off the road into a field. Balaam beat it^(B) to get it back on the road.

²⁴ Then the angel of the Lord stood in a narrow path through the vineyards, with walls on both sides. ²⁵ When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, it pressed close to the wall, crushing Balaam’s foot against it. So he beat the donkey again.
