No personal covenant is mentioned with Moses. Rather, God made a covenant between Himself and the Israelites, including Moses (Exodus 34:27). This covenant requires that the Israelites obey the Torah (Exodus 19:5, Leviticus ch.26, Deuteronomy ch. 28 and 31). Nonetheless, it will never cease to exist (Leviticus 26:44).

However, it does have a "conditional" nature to it as most contracts do. If the Israelites fulfill their half of the agreement, God will bless them and provide for them. If the Israelites do not fulfill their half of the agreement, God will curse them and destroy them. Many Religious Jews see the Diasporic Nature of the Jewish Community to be evidence of a general failure for Jews (the descendants of the Israelites) to uphold the agreement made between Moses and God.
