In context
8 There is one alone , and there is not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he , For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.
9-10 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone ?

Watu wawili wanafanya vizuri zaidi ya mmoja; kwa pamoja wanaweza kupata malipo mazuri kwa ajili ya kazi yao. Kwa kuwa kama mmoja akianguka, mwingine anaweza kumwinua rafiki yake. Ingawa, huzuni humfuata yeye aliye peke yake anapoanguka kama hakuna mtu wa kumwinua.
Ababiri basinga omu, kubanga bagasibwa nnyo mu kukola kwabwe. Kubanga singa omu agwa, munne amuyimusa. Naye zimusanze oyo ali obw’omu, bw’agwa tabaako amuyimusa.
Bato mibale bazali malamu koleka moto moko, pamba te bakozwa lifuti ya malonga na mosala na bango. Soki moko akweyi, moninga na ye akoki kosunga ye ; kasi mawa na moto oyo akweyi mpe azangi moto oyo akosunga ye !
Deux valent mieux qu’ un, parce qu’ ils retirent un bon salaire de leur travail. Car, s’ ils tombent, l’ un relève son compagnon; mais malheur à celui qui est seul et qui tombe, sans avoir un second pour le relever!
Mejores son dos que uno; porque tienen mejor paga de su trabajo. Porque si cayeren, el uno levantará á su compañero: mas ¡ ay del solo! que cuando cayere, no habrá segundo que lo levante.
So ist's ja besser zwei als eins; denn sie genießen doch ihrer Arbeit wohl. Fällt ihrer einer so hilft ihm sein Gesell auf. Weh dem, der allein ist! Wenn er fällt, so ist keiner da, der ihm aufhelfe.
Melhor é serem dois do que um, porque eles têm uma boa recompensa pelo seu trabalho. Pois, se caírem, um levantará o seu companheiro; mas ai daquele que está sozinho quando cai, e não tem outro para levantá-lo.
