'Rulers' in the Bible

And some Manassites deserted to David when he came with the Philistines to the battle against Saul, but he did not help them, for the rulers of the Philistines sent him away upon counsel, saying, "He will desert to his master Saul at [the cost of] our heads."

And to Shemaiah his son were sons born who [were] rulers in the house of their father, for they [were] mighty warriors of ability.
