Which is exactly the essence of the quote you are trying to refute. You cannot have your cake and eat it too.

What were the implication of Epicurus' idea of a god who would not stop evil?

What are the implications of God of the bible's purpose of evil?

Do you see a contrast? The result may have been the same but the conclusion or understanding of evil places the Epicurean Paradox in peril.
