Contradiction with Exodus 20:17
This verse contradicts 2 Samuel 23:15 by prohibiting coveting what belongs to others, whereas in 2 Samuel 23:15, David expresses a longing for water from Bethlehem, potentially seen as a personal desire for something not rightfully his.
Exodus 20:17: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbour's.
Contradiction with Proverbs 21:26
This verse contrasts with 2 Samuel 23:15 by characterizing the righteous as giving without sparing, while David's request in 2 Samuel 23:15 for water appears as a self-centered desire rather than an act of giving.
Proverbs 21:26: He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
Contradiction with Matthew 6:31-32
These verses contradict 2 Samuel 23:15 by advising against being anxious for material needs, encouraging trust in God to provide, whereas in 2 Samuel 23:15, David's yearning for water could be interpreted as an undue concern for physical comfort.
Matthew 6:31-32: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
Contradiction with Philippians 4:11
This verse contrasts with 2 Samuel 23:15 by promoting contentment in every situation, while in 2 Samuel 23:15 David expresses a discontent need for something specific, potentially showing a lack of contentment.
Philippians 4:11: Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, [therewith] to be content.
