Where Lords/Princes appears in Scripture
בֵּהּ-זִמְנָא מַנְדְּעִי׀ יְתוּב עֲלַי וְלִיקַר מַלְכוּתִי הַדְרִי וְזִיוִי יְתוּב עֲלַי וְלִי הַדָּֽבְרַי וְרַבְרְבָנַי יְבַעוֹן וְעַל-מַלְכוּתִי הָתְקְנַת וּרְבוּ יַתִּירָה הוּסְפַת לִֽי׃
At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellers and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.
בֵּלְשַׁאצַּר מַלְכָּא עֲבַד לְחֶם רַב לְרַבְרְבָנוֹהִי אֲלַף וְלָקֳבֵל אַלְפָּא חַמְרָא שָׁתֵֽה׃
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
בֵּלְשַׁאצַּר אֲמַר׀ בִּטְעֵם חַמְרָא לְהַיְתָיָה לְמָאנֵי דַּהֲבָא וְכַסְפָּא דִּי הַנְפֵּק נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר אֲבוּהִי מִן-הֵיכְלָא דִּי בִירוּשְׁלֶם וְיִשְׁתּוֹן בְּהוֹן מַלְכָּא וְרַבְרְבָנוֹהִי שֵׁגְלָתֵהּ וּלְחֵנָתֵֽהּ׃
Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.
בֵּאדַיִן הַיְתִיו מָאנֵי דַהֲבָא דִּי הַנְפִּקוּ מִן-הֵֽיכְלָא דִּֽי-בֵית אֱלָהָא דִּי בִירֽוּשְׁלֶם וְאִשְׁתִּיו בְּהוֹן מַלְכָּא וְרַבְרְבָנוֹהִי שֵׁגְלָתֵהּ וּלְחֵנָתֵֽהּ׃
Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.
אֱדַיִן מַלְכָּא בֵלְשַׁאצַּר שַׂגִּיא מִתְבָּהַל וְזִיוֺהִי שָׁנַיִן עֲלוֹהִי וְרַבְרְבָנוֹהִי מִֽשְׁתַּבְּשִֽׁין׃
Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonied.
מַלְכְּתָא לָקֳבֵל מִלֵּי מַלְכָּא וְרַבְרְבָנוֹהִי לְבֵית מִשְׁתְּיָא (עללת) עַלַּת עֲנָת מַלְכְּתָא וַאֲמֶרֶת מַלְכָּא לְעָלְמִין חֱיִי אַֽל-יְבַהֲלוּךְ רַעְיוֹנָךְ וְזִיוָיךְ אַל-יִשְׁתַּנּֽוֹ׃
Now the queen, by reason of the words of the king and his lords, came into the banquet house: and the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:
וְעַל מָרֵֽא-שְׁמַיָּא׀ הִתְרוֹמַמְתָּ וּלְמָֽאנַיָּא דִֽי-בַיְתֵהּ הַיְתִיו (קדמיך) קָֽדָמָךְ (ואנתה) וְאַנְתְּ (ורברבניך) וְרַבְרְבָנָךְ שֵֽׁגְלָתָךְ וּלְחֵנָתָךְ חַמְרָא שָׁתַיִן בְּהוֹן וְלֵֽאלָהֵי כַסְפָּֽא-וְדַהֲבָא נְחָשָׁא פַרְזְלָא אָעָא וְאַבְנָא דִּי לָֽא-חָזַיִן וְלָא-שָׁמְעִין וְלָא יָדְעִין שַׁבַּחְתָּ וְלֵֽאלָהָא דִּֽי-נִשְׁמְתָךְ בִּידֵהּ וְכָל-אֹרְחָתָךְ לֵהּ לָא הַדַּֽרְתָּ׃
But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
וְהֵיתָיִת אֶבֶן חֲדָה וְשֻׂמַת עַל-פֻּם גֻּבָּא וְחַתְמַהּ מַלְכָּא בְּעִזְקְתֵהּ וּבְעִזְקָת רַבְרְבָנוֹהִי דִּי לָא-תִשְׁנֵא צְבוּ בְּדָנִיֵּֽאל׃
And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel.
