Ecclesiastes 4:12-16

¹²Someone fighting against one other person may win, but not if they are fighting against two. A cord made of three strands can't be torn apart quickly.

¹³A poor young person who's wise is better than an old and foolish king who no longer accepts advice.

¹⁴He may even come out of prison to reign over his kingdom, even though he was born poor.

¹⁵I observed everyone here on earth following the youth who takes his place.

¹⁶He is surrounded by crowds of supporters, but the next generation isn't happy with him. This also illustrates the passing nature of life whose meaning is elusive, like pursuing the wind for understanding.
