Contradiction with Proverbs 3:5-6
These verses encourage trusting the Lord and not relying on one's own understanding, whereas Psalms 25:9 emphasizes the meek being guided, suggesting a focus on attitude over explicit trust.
Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Contradiction with Proverbs 16:9
This verse highlights that while man plans his way, the Lord directs his steps, potentially contrasting with Psalms 25:9 by suggesting more divine intervention irrespective of one's meekness.
Proverbs 16:9: A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
Contradiction with Isaiah 55:8-9
These verses indicate that God's thoughts and ways are incomprehensibly higher than human thoughts, which might contradict Psalms 25:9's idea that the meek can be straightforwardly guided in His way.
Isaiah 55:8-9: For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 8:17
This verse suggests that humans cannot discover all the works of God, contradicting Psalms 25:9 which implies a clearer path for the meek.
Ecclesiastes 8:17: Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek [it] out, yet he shall not find [it]; yea further; though a wise [man] think to know [it], yet shall he not be able to find [it].
Contradiction with Job 11:7
It questions whether humans can fully understand God's nature, which might contradict the idea in Psalms 25:9 that meek individuals can fully understand God's teachings.
Job 11:7: Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
