Contradiction with Isaiah 28:21
Contradicts by showing God's willingness to perform unexpected acts, possibly including affliction.

Contradiction with Exodus 32:14
Depicts God as changing His mind about doing harm, contrary to the idea of not willingly afflicting.
Exodus 32:14: And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 18:7-10
Suggests God's readiness to change intentions based on human actions, possibly implying affliction.
Jeremiah 18:7-10: [At what] instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy [it];
Contradiction with Job 2:10
Implies that both good and evil (affliction) come from God, contrasting the unwillingness to afflict.
Job 2:10: But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
Contradiction with Ezekiel 7:9
Shows God as not sparing or pitying, seemingly willing to cause suffering.
Ezekiel 7:9: And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense thee according to thy ways and thine abominations [that] are in the midst of thee; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD that smiteth. [thee according: Heb. upon thee, etc]
Paradox #1
Lamentations 3:33 suggests that God does not willingly cause suffering. A contradiction could arise when considering other parts of the Bible where suffering or hardship is depicted as being intentionally inflicted or allowed by God for various reasons. This could be seen as inconsistent with the idea that God does not willingly bring about suffering.
