translation of "Mark"

[ninar@techpointer.com]

Please remember that this is my first attempt to express
myself in lojban.  I'd appreciate pointers on areas I need
to study, and hope I haven't completely balled this up.
The English follows my lojban.

A few comments:

Although it does seem good to use .iecu,yas. for Jesus,
I didn't know what to do with the honorific "Christ", and
.iesus.kristos. is more like the Greek.  I don't have access
at the moment to the Greek text, but I think .izeias. is also close.
And "lord" (?) I know that "banli" is not right, but it was the
best I could find.

dei krasi le vreji le xamgu nuzba ku la .iesus.kristos.

The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ[, the Son of God].
It is written in Isaiah the prophet: "I will send my messenger ahead

of you, who will prepare your way
"a voice of one calling in the desert, `Prepare the way for the Lord,

make straight paths for him.'"

Comments and corrections are very welcome.
