George Leo Haydock, on Lev 26:16

“I also will do these things to you: I will quickly visit you with poverty, and burning heat, which shall waste your eyes, and consume your lives. You shall sow your seed in vain, which shall be devoured by your enemies.”

“Heat. Hebrew kaddachath, is rendered “scab and jaundice,” by the Septuagint: and by others “a dangerous wind,” like that which causes so many diseases in Egypt. The precise meaning of some terms in this verse is not well known.”
