Ecclesiastes 4:10-16 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

10. For 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!

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

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

13. Better is a poor but wise youth than an old and foolish king, who knoweth no more how to be admonished.

14. For out of the prison-house he came forth to reign, although he was born poor in his kingdom.

15. I saw all the living that walk under the sun, with the child, the second, that should stand up in his stead.

16. There is no end of all the people, of all that stood before them; those however that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after the wind.
