Why did God create humans?

Genesis 1:

28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Ecclesiastes 3:

13 And people should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of their labor, for these are gifts from God.
From humans' perspective, God created humans to enjoy the world.

From God's perspective, Colossians 1:

16 All things were created by him and for him.
Isaiah 43:

7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”
Psalm 100:

3 Know that the LORD is God. It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.
Ephesians 2:

10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works
To do good works is to have faith in God.

God created humans to be his faithful people to do good works for his glory and to enjoy him and one another, as well as his created world.
