'Pleasure' in the Bible
Behold also the ships, which are so great, and driven by violent winds, are turned about by a very small rudder, wherever the pleasure of the helmsman will.
You ask and don’t receive because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your evil desires.
But the right thing to say would be, If it is the Lord's pleasure and if we are still living, we will do this and that.
Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
