There is no commandment that specifies respecting those in authority, but commandment number 5 talks about obeying your parents which have authority over you. It does mention in the new testament that you should follow the laws of the land. Jesus also says to give Cesar what belongs to Cesar talking about paying taxes. The Bible also mentions on multiple occasions that we should listen to elders or those in authority. There are more laws than just the 10 commandments. If you compare the laws of the Bible to the laws of the land, most of them are similar. For instance, murder is illegal and it is also against the Bible.
