since there can be only one, Jesus has to be Jehovah [singular] God [plural].  Here’s a few more passages that make direct or indirect claim to Jesus' deity:

Isaiah 9.6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The MIGHTY GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 48:16  I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; From the time that it was, there am I; and now the Lord God [Heavenly Father], and his [Holy] Spirit, hath sent me [Jesus, the Son].

Jeremiah 23.5,6  The days are coming, declares THE LORD [JEHOVAH], when I will raise up to David a righteous Branch, a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. THIS IS THE NAME BY WHICH HE WILL BE CALLED:  THE LORD [JEHOVAH] OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Zechariah 12.10  And I [Jehovah] will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon ME [Jehovah] whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for HIM [MESSIAH], as one mourneth for his only son....

Matthew 28:19  ...baptizing them in the name [singular] of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. [One name (God) -- yet three persons]

John 1.1  In the beginning was the Word [Messiah], and the Word was with God, and the WORD WAS GOD. [Literal Greek translation says “God was the word.”]

John 8:58  I tell you the truth, Jesus answered,, before Abraham was born, I AM!  At this, they picked up stones to stone him.... [He didn’t say “I was”, this is another direct claim to be I AM THAT I AM—Jehovah.]

Revelation 1:8  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty
