'Acquaintances' in the Bible

So King Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, along with other priests, and asked them, "Why haven't you fixed the leaks in the Temple? Stop receiving donations from your acquaintances for repairing the leaks in the Temple."

"My brothers are alienated from me; my acquaintances are estranged;

You caused my acquaintances to shun me; you make me extremely abhorrent to them. Restrained, I am unable to go out.

You caused my friend and neighbor to shun me; and my acquaintances are confused. An instruction. By Ethan, the Ezrahite

But all his acquaintances, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, were standing at a distance watching these things.
