Tedy rzekli do Jozuego: My jesteśmy słudzy twoi. Którym rzekł powtóre Jozue: Coście wy zacz, a skąd idziecie? A oni mu odpowiedzieli:
A oni rzekli do Jozuego: Słudzy twoi jesteśmy. I rzekł do nich Jozue: Coście wy zacz, a skądeście przyszli?
Lecz oni powiedzieli do Jozuego: Zwracamy się do ciebie jako twoi słudzy. Jozue zatem zapytał: Kim jesteście i skąd przybywacie?
Więc powiedzieli do Jezusa, syna Nuna: Chcemy być twoimi sługami. Wtedy Jezus, syn Nuna, ich zapytał: Coście za jedni oraz skąd przybywacie?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they said unto Joshua, we [are] thy servants,.... Not that they meant to be subjects of his, and tributaries to him; but this they said in great humility and lowliness of mind, being willing to be or do anything he should enjoin them. Abarbinel observes, that this they proposed to Joshua singly, not to be servants to all the people, but to him only, and to have him for their head and governor:
and Joshua, said, who [are] ye? and from whence come ye? by what name are ye called? and from what country do ye come? suspecting, as it should seem, that they were the inhabitants of Canaan; or however he was cautious and upon his guard, lest they should be such, and yet was not enough upon his guard to prevent imposition.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 9:8. We are thy servants. — This appears to have been the only answer they gave to the question of the Israelitish elders, and this they gave to Joshua, not to them, as they saw that Joshua was commander-in-chief of the host.
Who are ye? and from whence come ye? — To these questions, from such an authority, they felt themselves obliged to give an explicit answer; and they do it very artfully by a mixture of truth, falsehood, and hypocrisy.
