Åpenbaringen 8,1

Stillness and meditation
Da Lammet brøt det sjuende seglet, ble det stille i himmelen i omkring en halv time.

2 Så så jeg de sju englene som står foran Gud, og de ble gitt sju basuner.

3 En annen engel, som hadde et gullrøkelseskar, kom og sto ved alteret. Han fikk mye røkelse for å bære fram sammen med alle de helliges bønner på gullalteret foran tronen.
