Problems with query translation sql to eloquent, laravel 5.5

Order by ID not ID equals 3.

I understand, but what can I do, if I need the id field to be able to change a value?

$somevar=governor::find (3);

Please read the documentation there are many examples.

Yes, but a value appears, I explain, in the table I have 4 records, what I'm looking for is that when I change the id I show that as the first value, and then the others.

Not sure what you need, use this example from docs:

$somevar =governor::where ('id', '3') // replace 3 with a variable
               ->orderBy('some_field', 'desc')
               ->take(10)
               ->get();

But I don't understand, isn't id a unique field.

You probably need to take some of the free tutorials.

It is a select, when I return the form I want it to show me the values that are already saved by each user, and not that the same select me for all, now, yes, I must see many tutorials, I still do not have an experience like yours

Thank very muchs jlrdw, this is the solutions

governor::select('governor_candidate') ->orderByRaw("FIELD(id, 3) DESC") ->get();
