巴蘭夙興備驢、偕摩押使臣往。於是乘驢、二役偕行、緣其貪利而往、上帝震怒、耶和華之使者立於途以禦之、拔刃途側、驢見之、故不由其道、避諸田間、巴蘭策驢、使歸於道。徑由二葡萄園間、左右有垣、耶和華使者立於彼、驢見之、局促垣側、擠巴蘭之足於垣、故又策之、耶和華之使者前往、立於途之隘處、左右無隙、不能轉移、驢見之伏地、巴蘭怒、以杖策之。耶和華使驢作人言、謂巴蘭曰、我無所獲罪於爾、爾乃策我者三、巴蘭曰、汝戲我、願有刃於我手、我必殺汝。驢曰、我非爾常乘之驢與、自昔及今、我嘗有是行否、曰、否。耶和華明巴蘭目、乃見使者拔刃立於道、故稽首俯伏。使者曰、三策爾驢何也、爾所行者違逆於我、故我出以禦爾。驢見我而避者三、不然我已殺爾、使驢得生。

屢刑諸會堂、強使毀耶穌、攻之益狂、窘逐至外邑、

保羅訴時、非士都大聲曰、保羅、爾狂乎、爾多文而狂矣、曰、非士都閣下、我非狂、我所言者、真實無妄、

事有深可嘆息者、人生於世、心懷惡而行猖狂、終歸死地。

我盡心求道、欲知事理之所以、亦欲知愚昧之不善、

若爾於虛夸之財而不忠、誰以真者托爾耶、

降災罰惡、其日已屆、以色列族必知之、因犯罪惡、蓄怨不已、故彼冒為先知、佯托感神、卒見愚蠢、而發狂疾、
