Ecclesiastes 4:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ Two people are better than one.
    They can help each other in everything they do.
¹⁰ Suppose either of them falls down.
    Then the one can help the other one up.
But suppose a person falls down and doesn’t have anyone to help them up.
    Then feel sorry for that person!
¹¹ Or suppose two people lie down together.
    Then they’ll keep warm.
    But how can one person keep warm alone?
