Paradox #1

Psalms 34:19 talks about the idea that righteous people may face many problems but will be delivered from them. Some might see a contradiction in the fact that good people often continue to suffer in real life, despite their faith or righteousness. This contrast between the verse's promise and real-world experiences can be seen as a conflict.

This might seem unfair because we might expect that living a good life should come with fewer troubles, not more. This can be confusing and challenging to understand.
