This verse suggests that if a righteous person turns away from righteousness, their previous deeds won't be remembered, seeming to contradict the notion of God keeping a covenant due to a person's love and commandment-keeping.

Contradiction with Galatians 2:16

Galatians 2:16: Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Isaiah 64:6: But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
