The word "meek" is used just a handful of times in the Bible, but it is attributed several times to the Lord and is used in the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, so it has somewhat of a high profile. "The meek" means "people in the good of charity," which means people who love to do what is good for other people and from that love have an understanding of how to serve.
Jeremiah 25:31-33
31
A noise shall come even to the end of the earth; for Yahweh has a controversy with the nations; he will enter into judgment with all flesh: as for the wicked, he will give them to the sword, says Yahweh.
32
Thus says Yahweh of Armies, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great storm shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
33
The slain of Yahweh shall be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung on the surface of the ground.
