that what I previously planned, I’m now making it happen?
⇔
Fortified cities will collapse into heaps of rubble.

הֲלֹֽא־שָׁמַ֤עְתָּ לְמֵֽרָחוֹק֙ אֹתָ֣הּ עָשִׂ֔יתִי לְמִ֥ימֵי קֶ֖דֶם וִֽיצַרְתִּ֑יהָ עַתָּ֣ה הֲבֵיאתִ֗יהָ וּתְהִ֗י לַהְשׁ֛וֹת גַּלִּ֥ים נִצִּ֖ים עָרִ֥ים בְּצֻרֽוֹת
?,not (Some words not found in UHB: ?,not you(ms)_paid_attention (to)_from,distant,[time] DOM=her/it determined (to),from,days_of old and,I,planned_it now I,have_brought_it and,you_are [about]_to,make_desolate heaps ruins cities fortified )
If you have decided to translate all of this long quotation in such a way that there will not be quotations within quotations, you can continue doing that in this verse. Alternate translation: [Yahweh says that the Assyrian king must surely have heard that from long ago, he did it, that from days of antiquity, he formed it. Now Yahweh has brought it, that the king should be for devastating fortified cities into ruined heaps]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲלֹֽא־שָׁמַ֤עְתָּ לְמֵֽרָחוֹק֙ אֹתָ֣הּ עָשִׂ֔יתִי לְמִ֥ימֵי קֶ֖דֶם וִֽיצַרְתִּ֑יהָ
?,not (Some words not found in UHB: ?,not you(ms)_paid_attention (to)_from,distant,[time] DOM=her/it determined (to),from,days_of old and,I,planned_it now I,have_brought_it and,you_are [about]_to,make_desolate heaps ruins cities fortified )
Yahweh is using the question form for emphasis. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [Surely you must have heard that from long ago, I did it, that from days of antiquity, I formed it]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
לְמֵֽרָחוֹק֙ אֹתָ֣הּ עָשִׂ֔יתִי לְמִ֥ימֵי קֶ֖דֶם וִֽיצַרְתִּ֑יהָ
(to)_from,distant,[time] DOM=her/it (Some words not found in UHB: ?,not you(ms)_paid_attention (to)_from,distant,[time] DOM=her/it determined (to),from,days_of old and,I,planned_it now I,have_brought_it and,you_are [about]_to,make_desolate heaps ruins cities fortified )
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [I decided a long time ago that this would happen]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לְמִ֥ימֵי קֶ֖דֶם
(to),from,days_of old
See how you translated the similar expression in [10:36](../10/36.md). Alternate translation: [from ancient times]

(Some words not found in UHB: ?,not you(ms)_paid_attention (to)_from,distant,[time] DOM=her/it determined (to),from,days_of old and,I,planned_it now I,have_brought_it and,you_are [about]_to,make_desolate heaps ruins cities fortified )
The expression ruined is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that would be natural in your language. Alternate translation: [into heaps of ruins]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
