'Decree' in the Bible

Let me announce the decree of the LORD that he told me: "You are my son, today I have become your father.

He established a decree in Jacob, and established the Law in Israel, that he commanded our ancestors to reveal to their children

a decree that he prescribed for Joseph when he went throughout the land of Egypt, speaking a language I did not recognize.

He presented it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant.
