Im Kontext
35So Heliodorus after he had offered a sacrifice to God, and made great vows to him, that had granted him life, and given thanks to Onias, taking his troops with him, returned to the king.
36And he testified to all men the works of the great God, which he had seen with his own eyes.
37And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once more to Jerusalem, he said:

39For he that hath his dwelling in the heavens, is the visitor, and protector of that place, and he striketh and destroyeth them that come to do evil to it.
