With all prayer and petition pray [with specific requests] at all times [on every occasion and in every season] in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition [interceding in prayer] for all God’s people.
and the stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree shedding its late [summer] figs when shaken by a strong wind.
