Ecclesiastes chapter 4

Eccl 4

1 I have seen the oppression that is being done under the sun and the weeping of those being oppressed. They are under the strength of the hand of oppressors who should have turned back to comfort and even to console them. 

2 I commend those that have lived and died, even those who have died already, over those who are still living (unto paradise) 

3 because the two have seen the evil and the good activities which are still being done under the sun;

4 I have seen the toiling of men to be unto vanity, and the jealousy of (bad) friends towards the work/activities of those in companionship with the SPIRIT; 

5 you can (only) eat the fat of the flesh you embrace with your hand.

6 And by companionship with the SPIRIT - there will be rest from toiling; there will fulness of good things in the fist of our palm, - 

7 - and we will see the vanities under the sun restored.

8 There exist one extreme end to this toiling. Why would a son be satiated by making himself rich with good things from the toiling of his brothers who lack second eye? This ado/affair of souls is evil and is unto vanity.

9 Two are better than one, because there exist better wages for their labor.

10 if one fall down, his second will (still) be rising up. Alas (what an island!) to that one, if he falls down and his companion is the person that will be rising-up. 

11 if two lie down, both will be warm, and Also, one may even conceive/be emotionally warm.

12 with one thread/string, a thing will quickly disconnect/detach, while with two-fold, it will stand and with three-fold, it will be firm/strong. 

13 A child who is good to the aged men, will be the wise one who will enlighten the fools and even be a king who will be good to the poor.

14 sometimes, he was born and bound to be made poor, yet he comes out of that house to reign over a kingdom. 

15 I have seen a child among the living under the sun, who was walking around and those second to him were standing still. 

16 At the end, through the SPIRIT, people will rejoice at last because that idea/concept is transitory/vanity in HIS Face.
