Kulugwalo lwa Isaya 44:6, Jehova wakaamba kuti: “Ndime wakusaanguna alimwi ndime wamamanino.

Naakali kwaamba cibeela eeci calugwalo lwa Ciyubunuzyo, Professor William Barclay wakalemba kuti: “Zintu tazilembedwe mbozitobelana; . . . Alimwi kanji-kanji cilakatazya kapati kuzyiba kuti wini waambaula nguni.” (The Revelation of John, Volume 2, Revised Edition, peeji 223) Aboobo, “Alefa a Omega” waambidwe ku Ciyubunuzyo 22:13 inga waambwa kuti ngonguwe uupedwe zina eeli amuzibeela zimbi zyabbuku lyabbuku lya Ciyubunuzyo nkokuti Jehova Leza.
