The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): ne ut a principio, quia non eratis præsentes, percussit nos Dominus ; sic et nunc fiat, illicitum quid nobis agentibus.
Septuagint (Swete): ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ πρότερον ὑμᾶς εἶναι διέκοψεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐν ἡμῖν, ὅτι οὐκ ἐζητήσαμεν ἐν κρίματι.
Hebrew (WLC): כִּ֛י לְמַ בָּרִ֥אשׁוֹנָ֖ה לֹ֣א אַתֶּ֑ם פָּרַ֨ץ יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֨ינוּ֙ בָּ֔נוּ כִּי לֹ֥א דְרַשְׁנֻ֖הוּ כַּמִּשְׁפָּֽט

Haydock's commentary

Struck us. He partakes in the misfortune of Oza. (Haydock)

The law, through ignorance. You must attend and give proper directions. (Menochius)

Hebrew, "because we did not seek him with judgment," (Du Hamel) or, "after the due order." (Protestants)

Haydock wrote amid the controversies of his day. The Church teaches that those born into communities separated from her cannot be charged with the sin of separation, and embraces them as brothers (CCC 818).
