Ecclesiastes 1:18: For in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:22
Psalms 119:24 views testimonies as a delight and as counsel, but Matthew 5:22 presents a limitation on guidance, indicating that unwise words spoken in anger can lead to judgment contrary to the peaceful delight mentioned in the Psalm.
Matthew 5:22: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. [Raca: that is, Vain fellow]

Contradiction with Romans 4:15
Psalms 119:24 celebrates law as a delight and counsel, but Romans 4:15 argues that law can bring wrath, pointing to a negative outcome rather than the joy indicated in the Psalm.
Romans 4:15: Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression.
Contradiction with Colossians 2:14
This verse implies that the legal demands were set aside, whereas Psalms 119:24 treasures God's statutes as delightful counsel, suggesting a contradiction in the view of the law's relevance.
