8 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “people” →
No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.
He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.
He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.
In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.
That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance.
