'Rules' in the Bible

If you fear the Lord, worship and obey Him, and if you don’t rebel against the Lord’s command, then both you and the king who rules over you will follow the Lord your God.

The God of Israel spoke;the Rock of Israel said to me,“The one who rules the people with justice,who rules in the fear of God,

whoever sets his whole heart on seeking God, Yahweh, the God of his ancestors, even though not according to the purification rules of the sanctuary.”

for kingship belongs to the Lord;He rules over the nations.

Consume them in rage;consume them until they are gone.Then people will know throughout the earththat God rules over Jacob.Selah

He rules forever by His might;He keeps His eye on the nations.The rebellious should not exalt themselves.Selah

The Lord has established His throne in heaven,and His kingdom rules over all.

Praise the Lord, all His worksin all the places where He rules.My soul, praise Yahweh!

The Lord said:Because these people approach Me with their mouthsto honor Me with lip-service—yet their hearts are far from Me,and their worship consists of man-made ruleslearned by rote—

As for the command to leave the tree’s stump with its roots, your kingdom will be restored to you as soon as you acknowledge that Heaven rules.
