Numbers 22:33-35

Expanded Bible

³³ The donkey saw me and turned away from me three times [^Cit was more spiritually sensitive than Balaam]. If she had not turned away, I would have killed you by now, but I would have let her live.”

³⁴ Then Balaam said to the ·angel [messenger] of the Lord, “I have sinned; I did not know you were standing in the road to stop me. If I am wrong, I will go back.”

³⁵ The ·angel [messenger] of the Lord said to Balaam, “Go with these men, but say only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with Balak’s leaders.
