Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor.
10
For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up.
11
Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone?
12
Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
13
Better a poor and wise youth Than an old and foolish king who will be admonished no more.
14
For he comes out of prison to be king, Although he was born poor in his kingdom.
15
I saw all the living who walk under the sun; They were with the second youth who stands in his place.
16
There was no end of all the people over whom he was made king; Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
