"Diṣṭyā... saṃprāptaḥ te bāṇagocaram," "by good fortune he has fallen within the range of your arrows": Krishna sees in the enemy's arrival the hand of fate -- "diṣṭyā," by fortune or destiny. It is telling that the Lord interprets the event as a gift of Providence: the root of evil has itself come to answer for it. The verse teaches that Providence brings evil to its reckoning in its own hour, and the wise recognize that hour: that the guilty one "has come himself" to his avenger is no accident but an arrangement from above; and to discern "diṣṭyā," the benevolent finger of fate, and to act upon it, is part of righteous wisdom.
