巴兰这一去，激怒了上帝。巴兰骑着驴，带着两个仆人正走在途中，耶和华的天使拦住他的去路。

他们眼中充满淫欲，不停地犯罪，引诱那些信心不坚定的人。他们贪婪成性，实在是该受咒诅！他们离弃正道，走入歧途，重蹈比珥之子巴兰先知的覆辙。巴兰贪爱不义之财，

祂赐食物给走兽，喂养嗷嗷待哺的小乌鸦。

纯全无过的必蒙拯救，行为邪僻的转眼灭亡。

我怎能不爱惜这尼尼微大城呢？城中单是连左右手都分不清的人就有十二万多，还有许多的牲畜。”

耶和华使驴开口对巴兰说：“我做错了什么，你竟打我三次！”

“牛在踩谷时，不可笼住它的嘴。

你的公义稳如高山，你的判断深不可测。耶和华啊，你保护人类，也保护牲畜。

行为正直的人敬畏耶和华，行事邪僻的人轻视耶和华。

因为在你们离开埃及的途中，他们没有用水和食物款待你们，还雇用美索不达米亚的毗夺人——比珥的儿子巴兰咒诅你们。

耶和华的天使说：“跟这些人去吧，但你只许按我的指示说话。”于是，巴兰跟巴勒的使臣去了。

当夜，上帝来对巴兰说：“这些人既然来请你，你就跟他们去吧，但你只可照我说的做。”

忽然有耶和华的天使在荆棘里的火焰中向他显现。摩西看见荆棘虽然在燃烧，却没有被烧毁。摩西想：“我要过去看这个奇异的景象，荆棘为什么没有被烧掉呢？”耶和华上帝见他要上前观看，就从荆棘丛中呼唤他说：“摩西！摩西！”摩西说：“我在这里。”上帝说：“别再靠近，脱下你脚上的鞋子，因为你所站的地方是圣地。”又说：“我是你祖先的上帝，是亚伯拉罕的上帝，以撒的上帝，雅各的上帝。”摩西害怕看上帝，就把脸蒙起来。

“你这魔鬼的儿子，充满了诡诈和邪恶，是一切正义之敌，到现在还想歪曲主的正道吗？

行为正直的穷人，胜过行事邪僻的富人。

耶和华善待万民，怜悯祂所造的万物。

我的子民啊，你们要回想摩押王巴勒的阴谋以及比珥之子巴兰给他的回答，要回想你们从什亭到吉甲途中的遭遇，以便认识耶和华公义的作为。”
