Contradiction with Genesis 6:6
This verse suggests God regretted making humans, implying He does not have complete control over them, which contradicts Psalms 103:19's depiction of God's sovereign rule.
Genesis 6:6: And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
Contradiction with Exodus 32:14

Exodus 32:14: And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 18:8
Here, God says He will change His mind about disaster, which implies conditional sovereignty, contrary to the absolute dominion implied in Psalms 103:19.
Jeremiah 18:8: If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
Contradiction with Jonah 3:10
This verse describes God relenting from disaster, suggesting a responsive rather than a fully sovereign nature, which conflicts with the absolute control stated in Psalms 103:19.
Jonah 3:10: And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did [it] not.
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 15:35
God expresses regret for making Saul king, indicating a change of plan, which contrasts with the unwavering sovereignty depicted in Psalms 103:19.
1 Samuel 15:35: And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
Paradox #1
The verse suggests that a divine being has established a realm of authority and exercises control over all things. A contradiction or conflict might arise from the idea that natural phenomena are understood through physical laws and scientific explanations, rather than being directed by a conscious being. This represents a difference in views between faith-based beliefs and scientific approaches to understanding the world.
