'Rulers' in the Bible

Hear the word of Yahweh, rulers of Sodom! Listen [to] the teaching of our God, people of Gomorrah!

Yahweh has broken [the] staff of [the] wicked, [the] scepter of rulers,

For Heshbon withers the fields, the vine of Sibmah; rulers of nations have broken down her tendrils, they reached up to Jazer, they wandered [to the] desert; her shoots spread abroad, they crossed over [the] sea.

All of your rulers have fled together without a bow; all of {you who were found} were captured. They were captured together; they had fled far away.

Therefore hear the word of Yahweh, men of mockery, rulers of these people in Jerusalem:

the one who brings princes to nothing; he makes rulers of [the] earth like nothing.

Thus says Yahweh, the redeemer of Israel, his holy one, to the one who despises life, to the one who abhors [the] nation, to [the] slave of rulers: "Kings shall see and stand up; princes, and they shall bow down, for the sake of Yahweh, who [is] faithful, the holy one of Israel, and he has chosen you."

And now what do I have here?"{declares} Yahweh, "for my people is taken without cause. Its rulers howl," {declares} Yahweh--"and my name [is] reviled continually, all day.
