Ecclesiastes 4:12

NLT

NIV

12 A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
