3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “chief” →
And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham:
He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.
If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
