Exegesis
The clause opens with the negated prepositional phrase Ou di' eme {Οὐ διʼ ἐμὲ | Ou di' e-me} “not because of Me,” where the placement of the emphatic pronoun eme before the subject phrase shifts attention away from Jesus as the beneficiary.
In context — John 12:30
Jesus answered and said, “This voice did not come for My sake, but for your sake.”
