'Lifting' in the Bible

And to the land whither they are lifting up their soul to return, Thither they do not return.

and there is not an escaped and remaining one of the remnant of Judah, who are entering into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, even to turn back to the land of Judah, whither they are lifting up their soul to return to dwell, for they do not turn back, except those escaping.'
