Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind. | 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 reward for their labor. | Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. |
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. | 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! |
Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken. | And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart. |
