Go to the Hebrew. It doesn’t say that God can do what ever He wants. It says that He does what pleases Him.

It is not in contradiction with the Scripture that says that God cannot lie or change.

Okay. So your contention is that God does whatever pleases Him but He can't do whatever pleases him. He does it, He just can't do it.

If that's what you want to argue, don't let me stand in your way.
