Contradiction with Proverbs 12:5
This verse speaks of the righteousness of the thoughts of the just, which contrasts with 2 Samuel 14:8, where a manipulated situation is accepted by the king without thorough investigation.
Proverbs 12:5: The thoughts of the righteous [are] right: [but] the counsels of the wicked [are] deceit.
Contradiction with Proverbs 29:14
This verse suggests a king should judge the poor fairly, while in 2 Samuel 14:8, the king is influenced by deceit rather than justice.
Proverbs 29:14: The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established for ever.
Contradiction with Isaiah 11:4
Highlights the idea of judging with righteousness, contrasting with 2 Samuel 14:8 where King David acts on advice without probing the underlying motives.
Isaiah 11:4: But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. [reprove: or, argue]
Contradiction with Jeremiah 23:5
Predicts a king executing justice, unlike 2 Samuel 14:8 where David's response is based on manipulated counsel, not justice.
Jeremiah 23:5: Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
Contradiction with John 7:24
Advocates for judging righteous judgment, contrasting with 2 Samuel 14:8 where decisions are guided by deception rather than a righteous assessment.
John 7:24: Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
