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.

Revelation 8:1-5
American Standard Version
8 And when he opened the seventh seal, there followed a silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels that stand before God; and there were given unto them seven trumpets.
3 And another angel came and stood [a]over the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should [b]add it unto the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, [c]with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand. 5 And the angel [d]taketh the censer; and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and cast it [e]upon the earth: and there followed thunders, and voices, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
