Contradiction with Proverbs 28:27
While Psalms 72:13 speaks of delivering the needy, Proverbs 28:27 indicates that not giving to the poor leads to a curse, implying that help may not always come.
Proverbs 28:27: He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
Contradiction with James 2:16
Unlike Psalms 72:13 that expresses compassion for the needy, James 2:16 points out the futility of empathy without providing material aid, highlighting a potential lack of action.
James 2:16: And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be [ye] warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what [doth it] profit?
Contradiction with Matthew 26:11
Psalms 72:13 talks about caring for the poor, yet Matthew 26:11 acknowledges the perpetual presence of the poor, suggesting the inevitability that not all in need will be helped.
Matthew 26:11: For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
