Numbers 10:29-36 - The Appeal To Hobab

29 And Moses said unto Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We go unto the place of which the LORD said, 'I will give it you.' Go with us and we will do thee good, for the LORD hath promised good unto Israel."

30 And he said unto him, "I will not: but will go to mine own land and to my kindred."

31 And Moses said, "Oh nay, leave us not, for thou knowest where is best for us to pitch in the wilderness: and thou shalt be our eyes. 32 And if thou go with us, look what goodness the LORD showeth upon us, the same we will show upon thee."

33 And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days' journey, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them in the three days' journey to search out a resting place for them. 34 And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they went out of the tents.

35 And when the ark went forth, Moses said, "Rise up LORD and let thine enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee flee before thee."

36 And when the ark rested, he said, "Return LORD, unto the many thousands of Israel."
