Ketika keledai itu melihat Malaikat TUHAN berdiri di jalan, dengan pedang terhunus di tangan-Nya, menyimpanglah keledai itu dari jalan dan masuk ke ladang. Maka Bileam memukul keledai itu untuk memalingkannya kembali ke jalan.
Maka terlihatlah keledai itu akan Malaekat Tuhan berdiri di jalan dengan pedang yang terhunus pada tangannya, maka menyimpanglah keledai itu dari pada jalan lalu ke padang; maka dipukul Bileam akan keledainya hendak memalingkan dia kepada jalan pula.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the ass saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way,.... Which Balaam did not; his eyes being held from seeing him by the power and providence of God, that he might be reproved and rebuked by his ass, to whom God gave power to see, more than to him, as Jarchi notes, so that he had little reason to boast of his visions and revelations, and that he was the man whose eyes were open: the angel stood in the very pathway on which the ass was carrying Balaam: and his sword drawn in his hand; as threatening to destroy him, and as if he was just about to push at him, and signifying hereby not only that he deserved to die, but what death he should die of, namely, by the sword, as he did, Numbers 31:8
and the ass turned aside out of the way; out of the common road, to save its master and itself, from a natural principle of self-preservation: and went into the field; adjoining to, and that lay along the road side:
and Balaam smote the ass to turn her into the way; with his staff, as in Numbers 22:27 to bring her into the common road again.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 22:23. And the ass saw the angel — When God granted visions those alone who were particularly interested saw them while others in the same company saw nothing; see Daniel 10:7; Acts 9:7.
