Who slapped the donkey 3 times in the Bible?
Balaam, I believe. He slapped the donkey because the donkey kept running into the wall, pinning Balaam's foot against the wall, which was rather painful. He slapped the donkey on the tail 3 times, because the donkey kept doing it.The donkey kept doing it because there was an angel with a flaming sword (fire brand) and only the donkey could see it. Being smarter than the man at the time, the noble steed chose to be beat over killed, saving his life as well as that of his master.Num 22:21-33 GNB So the next morning Balaam saddled his donkey and went with the Moabite leaders. [v. 22] God was angry that Balaam was going, and as Balaam was riding along on his donkey, accompanied by his two servants, the angel of the LORD stood in the road to bar his way. [v. 23] When the donkey saw the angel standing there holding a sword, it left the road and turned into the fields. Balaam beat the donkey and brought it back onto the road. [v.24] Then the angel stood where the road narrowed between two vineyards and had a stone wall on each side. [v. 25] When the donkey saw the angel, it moved over against the wall and crushed Balaam's foot against it.Again Balaam beat the donkey. [v. 26] Once more the angel moved ahead; he stood in a narrow place where there was no room at all to pass on either side. [v. 27] This time, when the donkey saw the angel, it lay down. Balaam lost his temper and began to beat the donkey with his stick. [v. 28] Then the LORD gave the donkey the power of speech, and it said to Balaam, "What have I done to you? Why have you beaten me these three times?" [v. 29] Balaam answered, "Because you have made a fool of me! If I had a sword, I would kill you." [v. 30] The donkey replied, "Am I not the same donkey on which you have ridden all your life? Have I ever treated you like this before?" "No," he answered. [v. 31] Then the LORD let Balaam see the angel standing there with his sword; and Balaam threw himself face downward on the ground. [v. 32] The angel demanded, "Why have you beaten your donkey three times like this? I have come to bar your way, because you should not be making this journey. [v. 33] But your donkey saw me and turned aside three times. If it hadn't, I would have killed you and spared the donkey."

Did donkey once talk?
No. There is no such account in the Bible, although once Saul did go looking for some animals of his father that were lost.Probably you are thinking of Balaam who did have this happen due to his wrong attitude. This is recorded in Numbers chapter 22.Of course everyone knows that donkeys don't talk (although as a boy I did think Mr. Ed, the talking horse was good). Donkeys are referred to as being 'dumb' in the sense of not having the gift of speech. This is referenced in the verse below, another indication that the New Testament Christians recognized this event as historical fact, although obviously an exception and so supernatural in nature, as of course was the angel from which the donkey was trying to protect its master.Further to this it could be pointed out that to say something is supernatural does neither mean nor imply that it is not real, nor that it didn't happen. The events of 9/11 although incredible and out of the ordinary were not supernatural whereas the event with Balaam was, but nonetheless just as real, although certainly witnessed by less people.15Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
