It is Greek but here it is.
G40
ἅγιος
hagios
hag'-ee-os
From ἅγος hagos (an awful thing) compare G53, [H2282]; sacred (physically pure, morally blameless or religious, ceremonially consecrated): - (most) holy (one, thing), saint.

King James Version " And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints,ascended up before god out of the angels hand". Saints are born again believers

Since the book of Revelations was originally written in Greek it is a silly question to translate an English phrase that had been translated from Greek to then translate the same phrase into Hebrew. If you hire a very, very good ecumenical scholar who is knowledgeable of ancient Greek I'm sure you'll have some type of Hebrew translation that might be usable. If you want authentic understanding of the original text, learn Greek.

The Holy Ones are the saints; the believers; those that follow Jesus Christ.

Revelations was not written in Hebrew, it was written in Greek, as was the rest of the New Testament.
I believe the word is saints, (believers).
