Mark 1:2-3
KJV
2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
NIV
2 It is written in Isaiah the prophet: "I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way"
3 "a voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.' "
Verse 2 refers to two Old Testament passages (hence, "prophets"); Malachi 3:1 and Isaiah 40:3.
