The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Tunc summus sacerdos ostendit deposita esse hæc, et victualia viduarum et pupillorum :
Septuagint (Swete)
τοῦ δὲ ἀρχιερέως ὑποδείξαντος παρακαταθήκας εἶναι χηρῶν τε καὶ ὀρφανῶν,

Haydock's commentary

And provisions is not in Greek or Syriac. (Calmet)

Something was to be given for such feasts; (Deuteronomy xiv. 23.; Lyranus; Menochius) or people deposited in the temple their treasures; as all nations have judged that they would be there most secure. (Grotius; Tirinus; Calmet)
