'Elders' in the Bible

I called out to my lovers, but they deceived me. My priests and my elders have died within the city while looking for something to eat to keep themselves alive.

The LORD himself separated them; he will do nothing more for them. They did not respect their own priests; they did not honor their elders.

Princes they have hung by their hands; elders they have disrespected.

Our elders have ceased ruling at the gate; our young men have abandoned their music.
