Contradiction with Matthew 15:6
Psalms 119:129 holds God's statutes in high regard, but Matthew 15:6 portrays a scenario where tradition can void God’s commandments, indicating a conflict in prioritizing God's word versus human traditions.
Matthew 15:6: And honour not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
Contradiction with 2 Corinthians 3:6
Psalms 119:129 highlights the mystical quality of God's laws, whereas 2 Corinthians 3:6 suggests that the letter of the law can kill, but the Spirit gives life, presenting a contrast between literal and spiritual interpretations of God’s word.
2 Corinthians 3:6: Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. [giveth life: or, quickeneth]
Contradiction with Hebrews 7:18

Hebrews 7:18: For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
