Proverbs 3:32 emphasizes separation from the froward, yet Isaiah 55:7 calls for the wicked to forsake their ways and return to the Lord, highlighting His mercy and readiness to pardon.
Isaiah 55:7: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. [the unrighteous...: Heb. the man of iniquity] [abundantly...: Heb. multiply to pardon]
Contradiction with Matthew 5:45

Matthew 5:45: That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Contradiction with 2 Peter 3:9
Proverbs 3:32 states God's disfavor towards the froward, but 2 Peter 3:9 indicates that God is patient and not wishing for anyone to perish, which emphasizes His willingness for all to come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Contradiction with Luke 6:35
While Proverbs 3:32 portrays the Lord as detesting the perverse, Luke 6:35 encourages loving even enemies, reflecting God's kindness to the unthankful and the evil.
Luke 6:35: But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and [to] the evil.
