Numbers 22:31 in Context — Numbers 22
29 E Balaão respondeu à jumenta: Porque te zombaste de mim: bom seria se eu tivesse espada em minha mão, que agora te mataria!
30 E a jumenta disse a Balaão: Não sou eu tua jumenta? Sobre mim montaste desde que tu me tens até hoje; costumei a fazê-lo assim contigo? E ele respondeu: Não.
31 Então o SENHOR abriu os olhos a Balaão, e viu ao anjo do SENHOR que estava no caminho, e tinha sua espada nua em sua mão. E Balaão fez reverência, e inclinou-se sobre seu rosto.
32 E o anjo do SENHOR lhe disse: Por que feriste tua jumenta estas três vezes? eis que eu saí para me opor a ti, porque teu caminho é perverso diante de mim:
33 A jumenta me viu, e afastou-se logo de diante de mim estas três vezes: e se de mim não se houvesse afastado, eu também agora mataria a ti, e a ela deixaria viva.
