The 2 animals that spoke in the bible

Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)

1. The Serpent. Genesis 3

1 But the serpent was cunning, more than all the animals of the field that Jehovah God had made, which said to the woman: Conque God has told you: Do not eat of every tree of the garden?

2 And the woman answered the serpent: From the fruit of the trees of the garden we can eat;

3 But of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, God said: You shall not eat of it, nor touch it, that you may not die.

4 Then the serpent said to the woman: You will not die;

5 But God knows that the day you eat of him, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.

6 And the woman saw that the tree was good to eat and that it was pleasing to the eyes, and a covetable tree to attain wisdom, and he took off his fruit, and ate, and also gave to her husband, who ate just like her.

7 Then their eyes were opened, and they knew they were naked; Then they sewed fig leaves and made aprons.

8 And they heard the voice of Jehovah God walking in the garden, in the air of the day, and the man and his wife hid from the presence of Jehovah God among the trees of the garden.

9 But Jehovah God called to man, and said, Where are you?

10 And he said, I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, And I hid

11 And God said to him, Who taught you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I sent you not to eat?

12 And the man said The woman you gave me as a companion gave me the tree, and I ate.

13 Then Jehovah God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said: The snake deceived me, and I ate.

14 And Jehovah God said to the serpent: Because this you did, you shall be cursed among all the beasts and among all the animals of the field; on your chest, you will walk, and dust you will eat every day of your life.

2. The ass of Balaam. Numbers 22. 21-40

27 And when the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, he lay down under Balaam; and Balaam got angry and hit the donkey with a stick.

28 Then Jehovah opened his mouth to the donkey, which said to Balaam, What have I done to you, that you have scourged me these three times?

29 And Balaam said to the donkey Because you have mocked me. I wish I had a sword in my hand, which would kill you now!

30 And the donkey said to Balaam, Am I not your donkey? You have ridden on me since you have me until this day; Have I used to do so with you? And he replied: No.

31 Then Jehovah opened Balaam’s eyes and saw the angel of Jehovah, who was on the road and had his naked sword in his hand. And Balaam bowed and bent over his face.

32 And the angel of the Lord said to him, Why have you whipped your donkey these three times? Behold, I have gone out to resist you because your path is perverse in front of me.

33 The donkey has seen me and has turned away from before me these three times, and if he had not turned away from me, I would also kill you now, and she would leave her alive.
