Isaiah15:9

9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of Blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.

This seems to be the same place with Dibon mentioned v. 2. here called Dimon for the great bloodshed in it, as it here follows; such changes of a Letter being not unusual in Proper Names, as in Merodach for Berodach, Isa. 39. 1.

Either, 1. more than upon other parts of the Country, that being one of their High-places, v. 2. or rather, 2. more than hath been already mentioned.

God shall send Lions to find out those who escape the Fury of Men.

Marginal references: Heb. additi [illegible: 1+ letters]s.
