- I have seen that every labor and every skill which is done is the result of rivalry between a person and his neighbor. This too is futility and striving after wind.
- Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor.
- For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up!
- And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart.
The way of the Lord is a stronghold for the upright,
But ruin to the workers of injustice.
