Numbers 22:31-33 ▼

31 Then the LORD opened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the path with a drawn sword in His hand. Balaam knelt and bowed with his face to the ground.

32 The Angel of the LORD asked him, “ Why have you beaten your donkey these three times? Look, I came out to oppose you, because what you are doing is evil in My sight .

33 The donkey saw Me and turned away from Me these three times. If she had not turned away from Me, I would have killed you by now and let her live.”
