Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict in this verse might arise from the idea that being disciplined or corrected is a blessing. Some people might see hardship or correction as purely negative rather than a path to betterment and understanding. This can conflict with the belief that a loving deity should not allow suffering or hardship.
