Numbers 22:29 in Context — Numbers 22
27 L’ânesse vit l’ange de l’Éternel, et elle s’abattit sous Balaam. La colère de Balaam s’enflamma, et il frappa l’ânesse avec un bâton.
28 L’Éternel ouvrit la bouche de l’ânesse, et elle dit à Balaam: Que t’ai-je fait, pour que tu m’aies frappée déjà trois fois?
29 Balaam répondit à l’ânesse: C’est parce que tu t’es moquée de moi; si j’avais une épée dans la main, je te tuerais à l’instant.
30 L’ânesse dit à Balaam: Ne suis-je pas ton ânesse, que tu as de tout temps montée jusqu’à ce jour? Ai-je l’habitude de te faire ainsi? Et il répondit: Non.
31 L’Éternel ouvrit les yeux de Balaam, et Balaam vit l’ange de l’Éternel qui se tenait sur le chemin, son épée nue dans la main; et il s’inclina, et se prosterna sur son visage.
