lets try this again...
Here maybe you should try a different version, maybe then you'll have a better understanding of what the passage is actually trying too say:
ERV:
5 You can trust this: Every word that God speaks is true. God is a safe place for those who go to him. 6 So don’t try to change what God says. If you do, he will punish you and prove that you are a liar.
ESV
5
Every word of God proves true;
he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
6
Do not add to his words,
lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.
The writer here is communication the literal words of God are what are being proved to be true, and warns against changing them.
Again, the NT is Spirit inspired, and ultimately the words of a man. Or if you prefer: 'God's words filtered through a man's understanding.'

For about a second, and then, practically all atheists tear apart the bible limb from limb with such ease on this website.
I guess I'm supposed to post it again for you: Pro 30:5-6 5 Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. 6 Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.
B bb buu bbuuttt, that part is not meant to be taken literally, because it doesn't agree with what I'm saying in this case. The bible is wrong and I'm right, I follow the bible, but in this case naaaaahhhh. Can't you see that all you ever do is dodge everyone's questions regarding the bible? Can't you just be honest about the bible already? You say that it never says that it is perfect, and in this verse, it does say that. So, are you going to lie again, or just make another horrible fucking excuse?
