Ecclesiastes 4:8-9

Ecclesiastes 4:8-9 NIV

KJV NIV NLT NKJV ESV

There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. “For whom am I toiling,” he asked, “and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?” This too is meaningless— a miserable business! Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor
