Ecclesiastes 4:7-12

7And I returned and saw vanity under the sun.

8There is one [alone] and without a second; also he hath neither son nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour, neither is his eye satisfied with riches, and [he saith not], For whom then am I labouring, and depriving my soul of good? This also is vanity and a grievous occupation.

9Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.

10For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him that is alone when he falleth, and who hath not another to lift him up!

11Again, if two lie together, then they have warmth; but how can one alone be warm?

12And if a [man] overpower the one, the two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
