“Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones.”
'Curse Meroz, says the angel of the LORD, curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they did not come to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty. — The divine curse on Meroz (an unidentified settlement) indicates that non-participation in the covenant-prescribed military action incurred divine judgment. The phrase 'did not come to the help of the LORD' frames the battle as God's action requiring covenant partner participation.
