The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Fames si orta fuerit in terra, et pestilentia, ærugo, et aurugo, et locusta, et bruchus : et hostes, vastatis regionibus, portas obsederint civitatis, omnisque plaga et infirmitas presserit :
Septuagint (Swete)
λιμὸς ἐὰν γένηται ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, θάνατος ἐὰν γένηται ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἀνεμοφθορία καὶ ἴκτερος, ἀκρὶς καὶ βροῦχος ἐὰν γένηται, ἐὰν θλίψῃ αὐτὸν ὁ ἐχθρὸς κατέναντι τῶν πόλεων αὐτῶν, κατὰ πᾶσαν πληγὴν καὶ πᾶν πόνον,
Hebrew (WLC)
רָעָ֞ב כִּֽי יִהְיֶ֣ה בָאָ֗רֶץ דֶּ֣בֶר כִּֽי יִֽ֠הְיֶה שִׁדָּפ֨וֹן וְיֵרָק֜וֹן אַרְבֶּ֤ה וְחָסִיל֙ כִּ֣י יִהְיֶ֔ה כִּ֧י יָֽצַר ל֛וֹ אוֹיְבָ֖יו בְּאֶ֣רֶץ שְׁעָרָ֑יו כָּל נֶ֖גַע וְכָֽל מַחֲלָֽה

Haydock's commentary

Blasting, or mildew, (ærugo & aurugo.) The first has the colour of brass, the other of gold. Both have nearly the same import. (Menochius)

One of the terms is rendered, corrupt air; (3 Kings viii. 37.; Calmet) as this is one of the great causes why both plants and animals do not thrive. Septuagint, "corruption of the air and king's evil, or yellow jaundice:" ikteros. (Haydock)
