Ecclesiastes 4 - 인기 성경 구절

공유

Two people are better than one. When two people work together, they get more work done. If one person falls, the other person can reach out to help. But those who are alone when they fall have no one to help them.

An enemy might be able to defeat one person, but two people can stand back-to-back to defend each other. And three people are even stronger. They are like a rope that has three parts wrapped together—it is very hard to break.

If two people sleep together, they will be warm. But a person sleeping alone will not be warm.

Maybe that is true. But I say it is better to be satisfied with the few things you have than to always be struggling to get more.

Then I thought, “Why do people work so hard?” I saw people try to succeed and be better than other people. They do this because they are jealous. They don’t want other people to have more than they have. This is senseless. It is like trying to catch the wind.

A young leader who is poor but wise is better than a king who is old but foolish. That old king does not listen to warnings.
