| John 7:28 | Then Jesus, as he was teaching in the temple, cried out, saying, know me, and you know where I am from? I have not come on my own. But the one who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st) is true, and him you do not know; |
| John 7:29 | but I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) know him, because I am from him and he it is who sent me.” (me | με | acc sg 1st) |
| John 7:33 | Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for a little while longer, and then I am going back to the one who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st). |
| John 7:34 | You will look for me (me | με | acc sg 1st), but you will not find me (me | με | acc sg 1st); and where I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am, you cannot go.” |
| John 7:36 | What can it mean, this saying of his: ‘You will look for me (me | με | acc sg 1st) but you will not find me,’ (me | με | acc sg 1st) and ‘Where I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am you cannot go’?” |

| John 8:11 | She said, “No one, Lord.” Then Jesus said, “Neither do I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.” |
| John 8:12 | Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the light of the world. The one who follows me (emoi | ἐμοί | dat sg 1st) will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” |
| John 8:14 | Jesus answered them, saying, “Even if I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am bearing witness about myself, my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. You, on the other hand, do not know where I come from or where I am going. |
| John 8:15 | You judge according to human standards; I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) judge no one. |
| John 8:16 | But even if I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) do judge, my judgment is trustworthy, because it is not I alone who judge, but I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) and the Father who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st). |
| John 8:18 | I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am one who bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st) also bears witness about me.” (emou | ἐμοῦ | gen sg 1st) |
| John 8:19 | Then they began asking him, “Where is your father?” Jesus replied, “You know neither me (eme | ἐμέ | acc sg 1st) nor my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) Father. If you knew me (eme | ἐμέ | acc sg 1st) you would know my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) Father also.” |
| John 8:21 | Then he said to them again, “I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am going away, and you will search for me (me | με | acc sg 1st) but will die in your sin. Where I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am going, you cannot come.” |
| John 8:22 | So the Jews said, “Surely he is not going to kill himself, is he, because he said, ‘Where I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am going, you cannot come’?” |
| John 8:23 | He said to them, “You are from below; I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am from above. You are of this world; I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am not of this world. |
| John 8:24 | This is why I said to you that you would die in your sins, for if you do not believe that I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am he, you will die in your sins.” |
| John 8:26 | I have many things to say about you by way of judgment; but the one who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st) is truthful, and I say to the world only that which I have heard from him.” |
| John 8:28 | So Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am he. I do nothing on my own, but speak only those things the Father has taught me (me | με | acc sg 1st). |
| John 8:29 | And the one who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st) is with me (emou | ἐμοῦ | gen sg 1st); he has not left me (me | με | acc sg 1st) alone, for I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) always do what is pleasing to him.” |
| John 8:31 | Jesus therefore said to the Jews who had put their trust in him, “If you continue in my word, you are truly my (mou | μού | gen sg 1st) disciples, |
| John 8:37 | I know that you are Abraham’s descendants; but you are intent on killing me (me | με | acc sg 1st), because my teaching makes no headway in you. |
| John 8:38 | I speak about the things I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) have seen while with my Father, but you do that which you have heard from your father.” |
| John 8:40 | But now you are intent on killing me (me | με | acc sg 1st), a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did! |
| John 8:42 | Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me (eme | ἐμέ | acc sg 1st), for I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) came from God and now I am here. I have not come on my own, but he sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st). |
| John 8:45 | Yet because I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am speaking the truth, you do not believe me (moi | μοι | dat sg 1st). |
| John 8:46 | Who among you can prove me (me | με | acc sg 1st) guilty of any sin? If I am speaking the truth, why don’t you believe me (moi | μοι | dat sg 1st)? |
| John 8:49 | Jesus answered, “I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) do not have a demon; but I honor my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) Father, and you dishonor me (me | με | acc sg 1st). |
| John 8:50 | I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am not seeking glory for myself (mou | μου | gen sg 1st); there is one who seeks it and he is the one who judges. |
| John 8:52 | The Jews therefore said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died, and so did the prophets, yet you say, ‘If anyone keeps my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) word, he will never taste death.’ |
| John 8:54 | Jesus replied, “If I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) glorify myself, my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) glory amounts to nothing. It is my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) Father who glorifies me (me | με | acc sg 1st), of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’ |
| John 8:55 | And you have not known him, but I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) know him. If I were to say that I did not know him, I would be like you, a liar; but I do know him, and I keep his word. |
| John 8:58 | Jesus said to them, “I tell you the solemn truth, before Abraham came to be, I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am!” |
| John 9:4 | We must do the works of him who sent me (me | με | acc sg 1st) while it is day; night is coming when no one can work. |
| John 9:9 | Some said, “He is the one.” Others said, “No, but he looks like him.” But he himself kept saying, “I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the man.” |
| John 9:11 | He answered, “The man called Jesus made mud, daubed it on my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) eyes, and said to me (moi | μοι | dat sg 1st), ‘Go to Siloam and wash.’ So I went there and washed, and I was able to see.” |
| John 9:15 | Then the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. And he said to them, “He daubed mud on my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) eyes, and I washed, and now I see.” |
| John 9:30 | The man responded to them, saying, “This is an amazing thing, that you do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) eyes! |
| John 9:39 | Jesus said, “For judgment I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) came into this world, so that those who cannot see may receive their sight, and that those who think they see may become blind.” |
| John 10:7 | So Jesus said once again, “I tell you the solemn truth, I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the gate for the sheep. |
| John 10:8 | All who came before me (emou | ἐμοῦ | gen sg 1st) were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. |
| John 10:9 | I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the gate. If anyone enters through me (emou | ἐμοῦ | gen sg 1st), he will be saved; he will come in and go out and find pasture. |
| John 10:10 | The thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy; I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly. |
| John 10:11 | “I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. |
| John 10:14 | I (egō | ἐγώ | nom sg 1st) am the good shepherd. I know my own and they know me (me | με | acc sg 1st), |
| John 10:15 | just as the Father knows me (me | με | acc sg 1st) and I know the Father; and I lay down my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) life for my sheep. |
| John 10:16 | I have other sheep which are not of this fold. These too I (me | με | acc sg 1st) must bring. They will listen to my (mou | μου | gen sg 1st) voice, and there will be one flock, with one shepherd. |
