Show me the word "GOD" in your passages
Referencing Exodus 3:14 for example, apply this divine title of God in these happenings, and that is your answer.
"d. I Am: This is a divine title that Jesus took upon Himself often, clearly identifying Himself with the voice from the burning bush.
i. Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I Am [He], you will die in your sins. (John 8:24)
ii. Then Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I Am [He], and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things.” (John 8:28)
iii. Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I Am.” (John 8:58)
iv. Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I Am (John 13:19)
v. Jesus therefore, knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom are you seeking?” They answered Him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I Am [He].” And Judas, who betrayed Him, also stood with them. Now when He said to them, “I am [He],” they drew back and fell to the ground. (John 18:4-6)"

This is a clear and direct means of saying "I am he" or "I am God".
I dont know why your trying to get out of this. The Jews understood clearly what Jesus was saying. The disciples obviously knew what he was saying.
Why, out of curiosity, is it so hard for you?
Example of a different situation but relevant to your problem:
Jesus and Paul state that unleavened bread and fruit of the vine are used in the lords supper. However, they never say you CANT use steak and soda.
So, can you use steak and soda? Or do you know full well that directing bread and fruit of the vine, it excludes the steak and soda?
Did Jesus and Paul REALLY have to say " You cant use this or that?" ? Or can you get the hint with what they did say?
By Jesus stating “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I Am.” (John 8:58), Everyone knew quite obviously what Jesus was saying (Exodus 3:14).
