35So Heliodorus after he had offered sacrifice vnto the Lord, and made great vowes vnto him that had saued his life, and saluted Onias, returned with his hoste to the king. 36Then testified hee to all men, the workes of the great God, which he had seene with his eyes. 37And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once againe to Ierusalem, he said, 38If thou hast any enemy or traitor, send him thither, and thou shalt receiue him well scourged, if he escape with his life: for in that place, no doubt, there is an especiall power of God. 39For hee that dwelleth in heauen hath his eye on that place, and defendeth it, and hee beateth and destroyeth them that come to hurt it.
