'Pleased' in the Bible
For after the world by its wisdom--as God in His wisdom had ordained--had failed to gain the knowledge of God, God was pleased, by the apparent foolishness of the Message which we preach, to save those who accepted it.
But with most of them God was not well pleased; for they were laid low in the Desert.
