The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Nec dimittatis quidquam de supellectili vestra : quia omnes opes Ægypti vestræ erunt.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ μὴ φείσησθε τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς ὑμῶν τῶν σκευῶν, τὰ γὰρ πάντα ἀγαθὰ Αἰγύπτου ὑμῖν ἔσται.
Hebrew (WLC)
וְעֵ֣ינְכֶ֔ם אַל תָּחֹ֖ס עַל כְּלֵיכֶ֑ם כִּי ט֛וּב כָּל אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרַ֖יִם לָכֶ֥ם הֽוּא

Haydock's commentary

Leave nothing. Hebrew may have another meaning, which Calmet approves, "Let not your eye spare your furniture." Be not concerned to leave what may be useless, as most of the husbandry utensils would be in Egypt, "for all," &c.
