Numbers 22:31-35

ECB(i) 31 And Yah Veh exposes the eyes of Bilam and he sees the angel of Yah Veh stationed in the way with his sword drawn in his hand: and he bows and prostrates on his nostrils. 32 And the angel of Yah Veh says to him, Why smite you your she burro these three paces? Behold, I - I go out to be a satan to you, because your way is precipitous in front of me: 33 and the she burro sees me and deviates her face from me these three paces: had she not deviated her face from me, surely by now I had slaughtered you and preserved her alive. 34 And Bilam says to the angel of Yah Veh, I sinned! For I knew not that you stationed yourself in the way to confront me: and now, if it vilifies in your eyes, I turn back. 35 And the angel of Yah Veh says to Bilam, Go with the men: finally, word the word I word to you. - and Bilam goes with the governors of Balaq.
