1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 And I saw seven Angels standing in the sight of God. And seven trumpets were given to them.
3 And another Angel approached, and he stood before the altar, holding a golden censer. And much incense was given to him, so that he might offer upon the golden altar, which is before the throne of God, the prayers of all the saints.
4 And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints ascended, in the presence of God, from the hand of the Angel.
