Help on "A pox on the lot of you."

Will you tell me what does it mean?
I found it while reading the following:
"Yes, he was brash. But at heart he was a kindly, goodly soul who wanted nothing more than to rid the world of evil. And still you condemn him.A pox on the lot of you."
I am a non-English speaker. Will be kind enough to help me? Thanks a lot!

Best,
