2 Maccabees 3:29-31

Common English Bible

²⁹ While he was being cut down and left speechless through the divine power and deprived of all hope of recovery, ³⁰ the people were praising the Lord for acting miraculously on behalf of his holy place. And the temple, which had been weighed down with fear and disturbance a short time earlier, was now filled with delight and joy because the almighty Lord had publicly appeared.

³¹ Some of Heliodorus’ companions rushed to ask Onias to pray to the Most High to give life to the one who was about to draw his last breath.
