Numbers 22:27

Good News Translation

This time, when the donkey saw the angel, it lay down. Balaam lost his temper and began to beat the donkey with his stick.

See the chapter Copy

Sensible people are careful to stay out of trouble, but stupid people are careless and act too quickly.

Once more the angel moved ahead; he stood in a narrow place where there was no room at all to pass on either side.

Remember this, my dear friends! Everyone must be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry.
