* And God 's anger was kindled because he went , and the angel of the LORD stood in the way as an adversary against him . Now he was riding upon his ass , and his two servants [were ] with him . * And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way with his sword drawn in his hand ; and the ass turned aside out of the way and went into the field . Then Balaam smote the ass to turn her into the way . * But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards , a wall [being ] on this side and a wall on that side . * And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD , she thrust herself unto the wall and crushed Balaam 's foot against the wall ; and he smote her again . * And the angel of the LORD went further and stood in a narrow place , where [was ] no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left . * And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD , she fell down under Balaam ; and Balaam 's anger was kindled , and he smote the ass with a staff .
