Numbers 10:29-32

Christian Standard Bible

²⁹ Moses said to Hobab, descendant of Reuel^(A) the Midianite and Moses’s relative by marriage, “We’re setting out for the place the Lord promised, ‘I will give it to you.’^(B) Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the Lord has promised good things to Israel.”^(C)

³⁰ But he replied to him, “I don’t want to go. Instead, I will go to my own land and my relatives.”

³¹ “Please don’t leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes. ³² If you come with us, whatever good the Lord does for us we will do for you.”^(D)
