Numbers 10:29-32
New King James Version
29 Now Moses said to (A)Hobab the son of (B)Reuel[a] the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place of which the Lord said, (C)‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and (D)we will treat you well; for (E)the Lord has promised good things to Israel.”
30 And he said to him, “I will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my relatives.”
31 So Moses said, “Please do not leave, inasmuch as you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can [b]be our (F)eyes. 32 And it shall be, if you go with us—indeed it shall be—that (G)whatever good the Lord will do to us, the same we will do to you.”

Numbers 10:29-32
21st Century King James Version
29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law: “We are journeying unto the place of which the Lord said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come thou with us, and we will do thee good; for the Lord hath spoken good concerning Israel.”
30 And he said unto him, “I will not go, but I will depart to mine own land and to my kindred.”
31 And he said, “Leave us not, I pray thee, inasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes.
32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be that what goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.”
