'Desires' in the Bible

As obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires of your former ignorance.

Dear friends, I urge you as strangers and temporary residents to abstain from fleshly desires that war against you.

in order to live the remaining time in the flesh, no longer for human desires, but for God’s will.

For there has already been enough time spent in doing what the pagans choose to do: carrying on in unrestrained behavior, evil desires, drunkenness, orgies, carousing, and lawless idolatry.
