The Seventh Seal

8 When He opened the ^(A)seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. ² Then I saw ^(B)the seven angels who stand before God, and seven ^(C)trumpets were given to them.

^3 (D)And another angel came and stood at the ^(E)altar, having a ^(F)golden censer; and much ^(G)incense was given to him, so that he might ^[a]add it to the ^(H)prayers of all the saints on the ^(I)golden altar which was before the throne. ⁴ And ^(J)the smoke of the incense went up ^[b]with the prayers of the saints, out of the angel’s hand, before God. ⁵ Then the angel ^[c]took the censer and ^(K)filled it with the fire of the altar, and ^(L)threw it to the earth; and there followed ^(M)peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an ^(N)earthquake.
