The encrypted password you set for the backup to iTunes is wrong? If so you’ll need to figure it out otherwise you won’t be able to use that backup.
However if you still have the old iPhone and it’s not erased yet you can reset the password and do a new backup, just follow https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205220

Hello,
I think there's a problem with the backup password. Please recommend About encrypted backups on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's If you can’t remember the password for your encrypted backup section. I hope your problem solves well!
You can’t restore an encrypted backup without its password. With iOS 11 or later or iPadOS, you can make a new encrypted backup of your device by resetting the password. Here’s what to do:
You won't be able to use previous encrypted backups, but you can use the Finder or iTunes to back up your current data and set a new backup password.
If you have a device with iOS 10 or earlier, you can't reset the password. In this case, try the following:
