Numbers 10:28-32
New American Standard Bible
29Then Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, 'We are setting out to the place of which the Lord said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us and we will do you good, for the Lord has promised good concerning Israel.'
30But he said to him, 'I will not come, but rather will go to my own land and relatives.'
31Then he said, 'Please do not leave us, since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you will be as eyes for us.
32So it will be, if you go with us, that whatever good the Lord does for us, we will do for you.'
King James Version
29And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.
30And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.
31And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes.
32And 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.

Chapter 10
28This was the order of march of the people of Israel by their companies, when they set out.
29And Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will do good to you, for the LORD has promised good to Israel.”
30But he said to him, “I will not go. I will depart to my own land and to my kindred.”
31And he said, “Please do not leave us, for you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you will serve as eyes for us.
32And if you do go with us, whatever good the LORD will do to us, the same will we do to you.”
