The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
nec possent sacerdotes stare et ministrare propter caliginem. Compleverat enim gloria Domini domum Dei.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο οἱ ἱερεῖς τοῦ στῆναι λειτουργεῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς νεφέλης, ὅτι ἐνέπλησεν δόξα Κυρίου τὸν οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ.
Hebrew (WLC)
וְלֹא יָֽכְל֧וּ הַכֹּהֲנִ֛ים לַעֲמ֥וֹד לְשָׁרֵ֖ת מִפְּנֵ֣י הֶעָנָ֑ן כִּֽי מָלֵ֥א כְבוֹד יְהוָ֖ה אֶת בֵּ֥ית הָאֱלֹהִֽים

Haydock's commentary

Cloud. See 3 Kings viii. 10. (Menochius)

It is called the glory of the Lord, because its appearance was luminous and awful, being a symbol of the divine presence. (Haydock)
