So come with us and we'll be good to you, because the LORD has spoken good things about Israel." 30 But he said, "I won't go with you because I'm returning to my land and to my own family." 31 Then Moses responded, "Please don't leave us now, since you know where we can camp in the wilderness. You could be our guide.
