*
And God '
s anger was kindled because he went :
and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for 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 ,
and his sword drawn in his hand :
and the ass turned aside out of the way ,
and went into the field :
and 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 .
