Did the Bible lie about God? Does it say in one place that He loves all people while in another he hates all who do iniquity? If He loves everybody, like millions believe, then why does it say He hated Esau?

God loves the world, God loves all his children equally as a group. "You hate all who do iniquity" is a statement about God by David and not God's direct words. If you, like David, looks at God's works in regard to iniquity it would sure look like hatred.
Psalm 5:5 is a prayer by an imperfect man.
Malachi 1-3 is about what men have done directly to earn God's ire. This isn't about hatred of men as any rules but by those who would repeatedly work against the lord
So you believe Psalm 5:5 is a lie and that David wrote a lie saying God hates people He loves?
If the Bible writers lie about God, then what else are they lying about?
You have a very erroneous view of Scripture.
No it's not a lie, ffs.
David views God's reactions to iniquity as being like hate. It's a poetic prayer not a statement on the exact true nature of God.
Man you're really bad at reading and don't seem to understand what the psalms are.
We're done. I'm literally on the same side as you and you needed to be hostile. Go fucking pray on temperance and compassion.
