Vinsæl biblíuvers úr Ecclesiastes 4

Deildu

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.

Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone?

One hand full of rest is better than two fists full of labor and striving after 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.

A poor yet wise youth is better than an old and foolish king who no longer knows how to receive instruction
