Numbers 10:28-32

²⁸That was the order in which the groups of Israeli tribes traveled.

²⁹One day Moses/I said to his/my brother-in-law Hobab, the son of Reuel from the Midian people-group, “We are on the way to the place that Yahweh promised to give to us. Come with us, and we will take good care of you, because Yahweh has promised to do good things for us Israeli people.”

³⁰But Hobab replied, “No, I will not go with you. I want to return to my own land and to my own family.”

³¹But Moses/I said, “Please do not leave us. You know the places where we can set up our tents in this desert, and you can guide us.

³²Come with us. We will share with you all the good things that Yahweh gives to us.”
