Ecclesiastes 4:8
Compare all
6 aBetter a handful with quietness
Than both hands full, together with toil and grasping for the wind.  
7 Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun:
8 There is one alone, without1 companion:
He has neither son nor brother.
Yet there is no end to all his labors,
Nor is his aeye satisfied with riches.
But bhe never asks,
“For whom do I toil and deprive myself of cgood?”
This also is vanity and a1 grave misfortune. 

The Value of a Friend

9 Two are better than one,
Because they have a good reward for their labor.
10 For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.
But woe to him who is alone when he falls,
For he has no one to help him up.
