The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et irruemus super eum in quocumque loco inventus fuerit, et operiemus eum, sicut cadere solet ros super terram : et non relinquemus de viris qui cum eo sunt, ne unum quidem.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ ἥξομεν πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς ἕνα τῶν τόπων οὗ ἐὰν εὕρωμεν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ, καὶ παρεμβαλοῦμεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ὡς πίπτει ἡ δρόσος ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ οὐχ ὑπολειψόμεθα ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ τοῖς ἀνδράσιν τοῖς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καί γε ἕνα.
Hebrew (WLC)
וּבָ֣אנוּ אֵלָ֗יו באחת הַמְּקוֹמֹת֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִמְצָ֣א שָׁ֔ם וְנַ֣חְנוּ עָלָ֔יו כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יִפֹּ֥ל הַטַּ֖ל עַל הָאֲדָמָ֑ה וְלֹֽא נ֥וֹתַר בּ֛וֹ וּבְכָל הָאֲנָשִׁ֥ים אֲשֶׁר אִתּ֖וֹ גַּם אֶחָֽד

Haydock's commentary

Dew, which there falleth every night, in summer, like rain, Deuteronomy xxxiii. 28. Some of the light armed troops of the Romans were called Rorarii, because they fell upon the enemy, and began the battle.
