'People' in the Bible

No doubt but ye are the people, And wisdom shall die with you.

He taketh away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, And causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.

But he hath made me a byword of the people; And they spit in my face.

He shall have neither son nor son's son among his people, Nor any remaining where he sojourned.

In a moment they die, even at midnight; The people are shaken and pass away, And the mighty are taken away without hand.

That the godless man reign not, That there be none to ensnare the people.
