Contradiction with Genesis 8:21

This verse describes God's promise not to curse the ground or destroy every living thing again, while Psalms 104:6 speaks of the earth being covered with water during creation.

Genesis 8:21: And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. [a sweet...: Heb. a savour of rest or, satisfaction] [for the imagination: or, through the imagination]

Contradiction with Genesis 9:15

This verse promises that there will never be a flood to destroy all flesh again, contradicting the covering of the earth with water described in Psalms 104:6.

Genesis 9:15: And I will remember my covenant, which [is] between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

Paradox #1

The contradiction or inconsistency related to this verse might arise from how it describes the Earth's formation and the presence of water. Some people could see a conflict between this description and scientific explanations of Earth's history, such as the geological evidence for the formation of land and oceans. These different accounts may be viewed as inconsistent by some because they offer different explanations for natural phenomena.

Paradox #2

Psalms 104:6 describes the Earth being covered by water. A contradiction might be the idea that the Earth was completely covered by water at some point in recent history, as there is no geological evidence for a global flood covering all landmasses simultaneously in the recent past.
