4:9 两个人总比一个人好，因为二人劳碌同得美好的果效。
4:10 若是跌倒，这人可以扶起他的同伴；若是孤身跌倒，没有别人扶起他来，这人就有祸了！
4:11 再者，二人同睡，就都暖和；一人独睡，怎能暖和呢？
4:12 有人攻胜孤身一人，若有二人便能敌挡他；三股合成的绳子不容易折断。
9Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work:
10If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!
11Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone?
12Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
