Numbers 10:21-32

²¹Then the Kohathites went forward with the holy place; the others put up the House ready for their coming.

²²Then the flag of the children of Ephraim went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elishama, the son of Ammihud.

²³At the head of the army of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur.

²⁴At the head of the army of the children of Benjamin was Abidan, the son of Gideoni.

²⁵And the flag of the children of Dan, whose tents were moved last of all, went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai.

²⁶At the head of the army of the children of Asher was Pagiel, the son of Ochran.

²⁷And at the head of the army of the children of Naphtali was Ahira, the son of Enan.

²⁸This was the order in which the children of Israel were journeying by armies; so they went forward.

²⁹Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of his father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, We are journeying to that place of which the Lord has said, I will give it to you: so come with us, and it will be for your profit: for the Lord has good things in store for Israel.

³⁰But he said, I will not go with you, I will go back to the land of my birth and to my relations.

³¹And he said, Do not go from us; for you will be eyes for us, guiding us to the right places in the waste land to put up our tents.

³²And if you come with us, we will give you a part in whatever good the Lord does for us.
