The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Pugnaverunt ergo Philisthiim, et cæsus est Israël, et fugit unusquisque in tabernaculum suum : et facta est plaga magna nimis, et ceciderunt de Israël triginta millia peditum.
Septuagint (Swete): καὶ ἐπολέμησαν αὐτούς· καὶ πταίει ἀνὴρ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔφυγεν ἕκαστος εἰς σκήνωμα αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο πληγὴ μεγάλη σφόδρα, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐξ Ἰσραὴλ τριάκοντα χιλιάδες ταγμάτων.
Hebrew (WLC): וַיִּלָּחֲמ֣וּ פְלִשְׁתִּ֗ים וַיִּנָּ֤גֶף יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וַיָּנֻ֨סוּ֙ אִ֣ישׁ לְאֹהָלָ֔יו וַתְּהִ֥י הַמַּכָּ֖ה גְּדוֹלָ֣ה מְאֹ֑ד וַיִּפֹּל֙ מִיִּשְׂרָאֵ֔ל שְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים אֶ֖לֶף רַגְלִֽי

Haydock's commentary

Footmen. They had no cavalry, (Calmet) as God seemed to discourage any. (Haydock)

Even after Solomon's time, they had not many horsemen. (Calmet)

The Israelites had before lost 4,000: now when they were full of confidence, and fought with valour, they behold 30,000 fall. The ark proved thus fatal to them. (Haydock)
