The KJV renders 4 different Hebrew and Greek words as “law”

What it means

law (through the idea of prescriptive usage), genitive case (regulation), specially, (of Moses (including the volume); also of the Gospel), or figuratively (a principle)

from a primary (to parcel out, especially food or grazing to animals);

How the KJV renders it

law

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.

“law”

also renders dâth (H1882), mitsvâh (H4687), mishpâṭ (H4941)
