[The Pentateuch]

And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balac: If Balac would give me his house full of silver and gold / I can goo no further than the word of the Lord my god / to do less or more. Nevertheless tarry ye here all night: that I may were / what the Lord will say unto me once more. And God came to Balaam by night and said unto him: If the men come to fetch the / rise up and goo with them: but what I say unto the / that only thou shalt do.

And Balam answered and sayed vnto the servauntes of Balac: Yf Balac wolde geue me his housfull of syluer and golde / I can goo no further than the worde of the Lorde my god / to do lesse or moare. Neuerthelesse tarye ye here all nyghte: that I maye were / what the Lorde will saye vnto me once moare. And God came to Balam by nyghte and sayed vnto him: Yf the men come to fett the / ryse vppe and goo with them: but what I saye vnto the / that onlye thou shalt doo.

And Balaam rose up carly and saddled his ass and went with the lords of Moab / But God was angry because he went. And the angel of the Lord stood in the way against him. And he rid upon his ⟨image 290⟩ass and two servants with him. And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord stand in the way and his sword drawn in his hand / she turned a side out of the way and went out in to the field. And Balaam smote the ass / to turn her in to the way.

And Balam rose vppe carly and sadelde his asse and went with the lordes of Moab / But God was angrye because he went. And the angell of the Lorde stode in the waye agenste hym. And he ryd vppon hys ⟨image 290⟩asse and two seruauntes with him. And when the asse sawe the angell of the Lorde stonde in the waye and his swerde drawen in his hande / she turned a syde oute of the waye and went out in to the felde. And Balam smote the asse / to turne her in to the waye.
