Ecclesiastes 4:7-9

Young's Literal Translation

⁷ And I have turned, and I see a vain thing under the sun:

⁸ There is one, and there is not a second; even son or brother he hath not, and there is no end to all his labour! His eye also is not satisfied with riches, and [he saith not], `For whom am I labouring and bereaving my soul of good?' This also is vanity, it is a sad travail.

⁹ The two [are] better than the one, in that they have a good reward by their labour.
