'Wants' in the Bible

The Lord will not abandon his people because he wants to uphold his great reputation. The Lord was pleased to make you his own people.

Saul replied, "Here is what you should say to David: 'There is nothing that the king wants as a price for the bride except a hundred Philistine foreskins, so that he can be avenged of his enemies.'" (Now Saul was thinking that he could kill David by the hand of the Philistines.)

David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and asked, “What have I done? What did I do wrong? How have I sinned against your father so that he wants to take my life?”

Stay with me. Don’t be afraid, for the one who wants to take my life wants to take your life. You will be safe with me.”

Now, whenever the king wants to come down, let him come down. Our part will be to hand him over to the king.”
