Which is funny because as far as I know none of the pagan gods are presented as omnipotent or omnibenevolent. Works good applied on the Christian god though

Yeah, Epicurus wasn't making any kind of huge atheistic point. He was just exploring the Greeks' relationship to their religion. Hume is the one who co-opted and misquoted him to serve an anti-christianity agenda that didn't even exist when Epicurus lived.
