I am translating titles for a website, and this section is for the clergy. Any idea if this phrase "men of the cloth" is used in Latin, and if so, what the standard translation would be? If not, perhaps there is an equivalent commonly used in Latin...?

Clerus
Sergey is right, a man of the cloth is a priest, although in plural, as a group of people, I think the proper noun would be "clerus-i"
