Contradiction with Proverbs 19:5
While Psalm 119:69 mentions that the proud have forged a lie, Proverbs 19:5 states that a false witness shall not be unpunished, thus implying justice will be served, contrasting with the apparent success of the liars in Psalms 119:69.
Proverbs 19:5: A false witness shall not be unpunished, and [he that] speaketh lies shall not escape. [unpunished: Heb. held innocent]
Contradiction with Proverbs 12:19
Psalm 119:69 speaks of lies against the psalmist, whereas Proverbs 12:19 assures that truthful lips shall be established forever, suggesting that lies do not have enduring power, in contrast to the harmful effect indicated in Psalm 119:69.
Proverbs 12:19: The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue [is] but for a moment.
Contradiction with Exodus 20:16
Psalm 119:69 highlights falsehood spread by the proud, whereas Exodus 20:16 commands against bearing false witness, directly opposing the action described in the psalm.
Exodus 20:16: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Paradox #1
The contradiction or inconsistency might relate to the idea of falsehood or lying versus truth. The verse could highlight a conflict between those who act deceitfully and the desire or duty to remain faithful and honest. This can represent the struggle between maintaining integrity when faced with dishonesty from others.
