'Please' in the Bible

Rather, because we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, we speak as we do, not trying to please people but God, who tests our motives.

who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, who have persecuted us, and who please neither God nor any group of people,

Now then, brothers, you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, as in fact you are doing. We ask and encourage you in the Lord to do so even more.
