'Desire' in the Bible

But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be in bondage all over again?

They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.

Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, don't you listen to the law?

You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.

As many as desire to look good in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

For even they who receive circumcision don't keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.
