Contradiction with Proverbs 11:18
This verse states that the wicked work a deceitful work, but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward, contrasting the concept in Hosea 10:13 where it talks about reaping iniquity due to trust in wickedness.
Proverbs 11:18: The wicked worketh a deceitful work: but to him that soweth righteousness [shall be] a sure reward.
Contradiction with Galatians 6:8
This verse contrasts with Hosea 10:13 by emphasizing that he who sows to the Spirit shall reap life everlasting, while Hosea highlights reaping iniquity from trusting in one's own way.
Galatians 6:8: For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
Contradiction with James 3:18
This verse says that the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace, which contradicts with Hosea 10:13 where sowing wickedness leads to reaping negative consequences.
James 3:18: And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
Contradiction with Proverbs 22:8
According to this verse, he who sows iniquity will only reap sorrow, contrasting Hosea 10:13 which implies reaping willfulness due to the choice made.
Proverbs 22:8: He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail. [the rod...: or, with the rod of his anger he shall be consumed]
Paradox #1
Hosea 10:13 could present a contradiction by emphasizing reliance on human wisdom and actions over divine guidance. This might conflict with the broader biblical theme that encourages trust and dependence on God's wisdom rather than human capability.
