Numbers 22:22-27

22And 1God's angerH639 was kindled because he wentH1980; and the AngelH4397 of Jehovah set himself in the wayH1870 to withstand him. Now he was ridingH7392 upon his ass, and his twoH8147 youngH5288 menH5288 were with him.

23And the ass sawH7200 the AngelH4397 of Jehovah standingH5324 in the wayH1870, and his swordH2719 drawnH8025 in his handH3027; and the ass turnedH5186 asideH5186 out of the wayH1870, and went into the fieldH7704, and BalaamH1109 smote the ass to turnH5186 her into the wayH1870.

24And the AngelH4397 of Jehovah stoodH5975 in a hollow of the vineyardsH3754, a wallH1447 being on this side, and a wallH1447 on that side.

25And the ass sawH7200 the AngelH4397 of Jehovah, and she pressed herself against the wallH7023, and crushed Balaam's footH7272 against the wallH7023; and he smote her again.

26Then the AngelH4397 of Jehovah went stillH5975 further, and stoodH5975 in a narrow placeH4725, whereH834 was no wayH1870 to turnH5186 either to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the left.

27And the ass sawH7200 the AngelH4397 of Jehovah, and layH7257 downH5221 under BalaamH1109; and Balaam's angerH639 was kindled, and he smote the ass with his staffH4731.
