N'as-tu pas appris que j'ai préparé ceci dès longtemps, et que dès les temps anciens, j'en ai formé le dessein? Maintenant je le fais arriver, et tu es là pour réduire les villes fortes en monceaux de ruines.
N'as-tu pas appris que j'ai préparé ces choses de loin, Et que je les ai résolues dès les temps anciens? Maintenant j'ai permis qu'elles s'accomplissent, Et que tu réduisisses des villes fortes en monceaux de ruines.
N'as-tu pas appris qu'il y a déjà longtemps que j'ai fait cette ville, et qu'anciennement je l'ai ainsi formée? et l'aurais-je maintenant amenée au point d'être réduite en désolation, [et] les villes munies, en monceaux de ruines?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Hast thou not heard long ago ... - Rather, “Hast thou not heard, that from long ago I did this, from ancient times I fashioned it? etc.†The former part of the verse refers to the secret divine decrees, whereby the affairs of this world are determined and ordered from the very beginning of things. Sennacherib’s boasting, however, proved that he did not know this, that he did not recognize himself simply as God’s instrument - “the rod of His anger†Isaiah 10:5 - but regarded his victories as gained by his own “strength and wisdom†Isaiah 10:13.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 19:25. Hast thou not heard — Here Jehovah speaks, and shows this boasting king that what he had done was done by the Divine appointment, and that of his own counsel and might he could have done nothing. It was because God had appointed them to this civil destruction that he had overcome them; and it was not through his might; for God had made their inhabitants of small power, so that he only got the victory over men whom God had confounded, dismayed, and enervated, 2 Kings 19:26.
