Targum Onkelos
אִלֵּין פִּתְגָמֵי קְיָמָא דְּפַקֵּיד יְיָ יָת מֹשֶׁה לְמִגְזַר עִם בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּאַרְעָא דְּמוֹאָב בָּר מִקְּיָמָא דִּגְזַר עִמְּהוֹן בְּחוֹרֵב׃
These are the statements of the covenant that Adonoy commanded Moshe to ratify with Bnei Yisroel in the land of Moav, beside the covenant that he had made with them at Choreiv.
