Contradiction with Psalm 22:1
While Psalms 97:8 speaks of Zion rejoicing because of God's judgments, Psalm 22:1 reflects a feeling of abandonment by God, which contradicts the joy mentioned in Psalms 97:8.
Psalm 22:1: [To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.] My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring? [Aijeleth...: or, the hind of the morning] [helping...: Heb. my salvation]
Contradiction with Jeremiah 12:1
Psalms 97:8 portrays a sense of righteousness in God's judgments, but Jeremiah 12:1 questions why the wicked prosper, seemingly contradicting the reason for rejoicing in Psalms 97:8.
Jeremiah 12:1: Righteous [art] thou, O LORD, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of [thy] judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? [wherefore] are all they happy that deal very treacherously? [talk...: or, reason the case with thee]
Contradiction with Habakkuk 1:2-4
Psalms 97:8 expresses joy over God's judgments, whereas Habakkuk 1:2-4 expresses frustration over justice being delayed, contradicting the sentiment of joy from God's judgments.
Habakkuk 1:2-4: O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! [even] cry out unto thee [of] violence, and thou wilt not save!
Contradiction with Job 21:7
Psalms 97:8 speaks to Zion's joy from witnessing righteousness, yet Job 21:7 questions why the wicked live on and grow powerful, suggesting a contradictory outlook on divine justice.
Job 21:7: Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 7:15
While Psalms 97:8 mentions joy over just outcomes, Ecclesiastes 7:15 observes the perishing of the righteous and the prolonged life of the wicked, contradicting the notion of divine justice being a source of joy.
Ecclesiastes 7:15: All [things] have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just [man] that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked [man] that prolongeth [his life] in his wickedness.
