Exegesis
The genitive phrase tou thusiasteriou {τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου | thu-si-as-tē-rí-ou} 'of the altar' is connected to the present participle legontos {λέγοντος | lé-gon-tos} 'saying', forming a genitive absolute construction that portrays the altar itself as the one giving voice.
In context — Revelation 16:7
And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Lord God the Almighty , true and just are Your judgments .”
