On that day you shall
be exposed, not one secret
of yours concealed.
Then as for him who is given his book in his
right hand,
he shall say, "Here, take and read my book!
Certainly
I thought that I should encounter my
reckoning." So he
shall be in a pleasing life
in a lofty Garden,
its clusters nigh to gather.

The Holy Bible: The King James Version. 1611. (Job 4:14).

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. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
