Revelation 8:3-5
31Another angel came and stood at the 2altar, holding a 3golden censer; and much 4incense was given to him, so that he might 5add it to the 6prayers of all the 7saints on the 8golden altar which was before the throne. 4And 9the smoke of the incense ascended from the angel’s hand with the prayers of the 10saints before God. 5Then the angel 11took the 12censer and 13filled it with the fire of the altar, and 14hurled it to the earth; and there were 15peals of thunder and sounds, and flashes of lightning and an 16earthquake.
