Contradiction with Proverbs 24:17
This verse advises not to rejoice when an enemy falls, whereas Psalms 55:19 speaks to God's action against those who won't change, seemingly encouraging their downfall.
Proverbs 24:17: Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:
Contradiction with Matthew 5:44
This verse instructs to love your enemies and pray for those who persecuted you, contrasting with Psalms 55:19 which speaks of a divine response to adversaries.
Matthew 5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Contradiction with Romans 12:20
This verse calls for feeding and giving drink to enemies, in contrast to the idea in Psalms 55:19 of God afflicting those who refuse to change.
Romans 12:20: Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 7:9
Suggests to be not hasty in spirit to be angry, whereas Psalms 55:19 reflects adversity upon the unchangeable as a response.
Ecclesiastes 7:9: Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
Paradox #1
Psalms 55:19 discusses the concept of people not changing their ways because they don't fear God. A potential contradiction could be the idea that fear should be a motivator for moral behavior. In many ethical frameworks, true moral behavior is driven by understanding, empathy, or love rather than fear. This could seem inconsistent with the idea of acting morally out of fear of divine consequences.
