'Pre eminence' in the Bible

For the event of the sons of man, and the event of the cattle, one event to them: as this, so dies this; and the breath of one to all; and the preeminence of man not above the cattle: for all is vanity.

If the iron became dull and he polished not the face, and he will strengthen the forces: and wisdom will make preeminence to prosper.

Fear not therefore; ye have the preeminence over many sparrows.

But also the hairs of your head were all numbered. Therefore fear not: ye have the preeminence over many little sparrows.

Consider the ravens: for they sow not neither do they reap; to them there is not store-house nor store; and God nourishes them: how much more have ye preeminence of the fowls?
