8:1  When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
8:2  Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
8:3  And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
8:4  And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints, out of the angel’s hand, before God.
8:5  Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

8:11  And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.

8:13  Then I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!”
