you are the beginning and the end
ANOTHER ANSWER:
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."
"I John... was IN THE SPIRIT ON THE LORD'S DAY [John was transported in vision to the future DAY OF THE LORD, the time of Jesus' return], and heard behind me A GREAT VOICE... saying, 'I AM ALPHA and OMEGA, the first and the last; and , What thou seest, write in a book...'" (verses 9-10).
"Ahd He said unto me, 'It is done. I AM ALPHA and OMEGA, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the Fountain of the Water of Life freely." (Rev.21:6)
"'And, behold, I come quickly; and My reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I AM ALPHA and OMEGA, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." (Rev.22:12-13)
Of course, Jesus [the Old Testament LORD, YHVH, the WORD of God - see John 1:3] didn't inspire the Old Testament scriptures in "Greek"... so "Alpha and Omega" doesn't appear there.
However, Jesus does say in Isaiah 41:4 -- "KEEP SILENCE BEFORE ME, O islands... let us come near together to Judgment... I the LORD, the FIRST, and with THE LAST; I AM He [or just plain - I AM]."
And: "Thus saith the LORD King of Israel, and His Redeemer the LORD of hosts; I AM THE FIRST, and I AM THE LAST; and besides Me THERE IS NO GOD." (Isa.44:6)
And: "Hearken unto Me, O Jacob and Israel, My called; I AM He; I AM THE FIRST, I also AM THE LAST." (Isa.48:12)
