# covenant decrees

Other possible meanings are "testimonies" or "laws." See how you translated this in [Psalms 78:5](../078/005.md)

# set them in place

The psalmist speaks of Yahweh's commands as if they were posts set in the ground. Alternate translation: "given them for people to obey" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
