The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Nam ipse, qui habet in cælis habitationem, visitator et adjutor est loci illius, et venientes ad malefaciendum percutit ac perdit.
Septuagint (Swete): αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁ τὴν κατοικίαν ἐπουράνιον ἔχων ἐπόπτης ἐστὶν καὶ βοηθὸς ἐκείνου τοῦ τόπου, καὶ τοὺς παραγινομένους ἐπὶ κακώσει τύπτων ἀπολλύει.

Haydock's commentary

Visiter. Greek, "epopt," (Haydock) or inspector. (Calmet)

So those who had the care of a thing were styled. (Menochius)
