John 18:7

New American Bible - revised edition

So he again asked them, “Whom are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus the Nazorean.”

See the chapter Copy

He went and dwelt in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, “He shall be called a Nazorean.”

Jesus, knowing everything that was going to happen to him, went out and said to them, “Whom are you looking for?”

When he said to them, “I AM,” they turned away and fell to the ground.

Jesus answered, “I told you that I AM. So if you are looking for me, let these men go.”
