'Yearn' in the Bible

For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our [immortal, eternal] celestial dwelling,

and they also long for you while they pray on your behalf, because of the surpassing measure of God’s grace [His undeserved favor, mercy, and blessing which is revealed] in you.

Therefore, my fellow believers, whom I love and long for, my delight and crown [my wreath of victory], in this way stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.

and as I recall your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.

And in those days people will seek death and will not find it; and they will long to die [to escape the pain], but [will discover that] death evades them.
