2. And I saw the seven angels who stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
3. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
4. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God out of the angel's hand.
