'Lifted Up' in the Bible

When the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, the people lifted up their voices and wept.

And he lifted up his eyes and saw the traveler in the open square of the city; and the old man said, “Where are you going, and where do you come from?”

So the people came to Bethel and sat there before God until evening, and lifted up their voices and wept bitterly.
