The Value of a Friend<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a09<\/sup> Two are<\/em> better than one,
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Because they have a good reward for their labor.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 10<\/sup> For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0But woe to him who is<\/em> alone when he falls,
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0For he has<\/em> no one to help him up.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 11<\/sup> Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm;
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0But how can one be warm alone?<\/em>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 12<\/sup> Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.<\/span><\/p>\n
