2 Kings 19:25

Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.

KJV

Numquid non audisti quid ab initio fecerim ? ex diebus antiquis plasmavi illud, et nunc adduxi : eruntque in ruinam collium pugnantium civitates munitæ.

Vulgate

ἔπλασα αὐτήν, συνήγαγον αὐτήν· καὶ ἐγενήθη εἰς ἐπάρσεις ἀπὸ οἰκεσιῶν μαχίμων, πόλεις ὀχυράς.

LXX

Hast thou not heard how I have done it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? now have I brought it to pass, that it should be thine to lay waste fortified cities into ruinous heaps.
