Targum Ulangan 17:16: Targum Jonathan

רַק֮ לֹא־יַרְבֶּה־לּ֣וֹ סוּסִים֒ וְלֹֽא־יָשִׁ֤יב אֶת־הָעָם֙ מִצְרַ֔יְמָה לְמַ֖עַן הַרְבּ֣וֹת ס֑וּס וַֽיהוָה֙ אָמַ֣ר לָכֶ֔ם לֹ֣א תֹסִפ֗וּן לָשׁ֛וּב בַּדֶּ֥רֶךְ הַזֶּ֖ה עֽוֹד׃

Hanya saja, raja itu tidak boleh memiliki banyak kuda bagi dirinya sendiri, dan tidak boleh membuat bangsa itu kembali ke Mesir demi memperbanyak kuda, sebab Yang Mahakekal telah berfirman kepadamu, “Janganlah kamu kembali lagi melalui jalan ini.”

Targum Jonathan

Only let him not increase to him more than two horses, lest his princes ride upon them, and become proud, neglect the words of the law, and commit the sin of the captivity of Mizraim; for the Lord hath told you, By that way ye shall return no more.
