 Dibon
    pining; wasting. (1.) A city in Moab (Num. 21:30); called also
    Dibon-gad (33:45), because it was built by Gad and Dimon (Isa.
    15:9). It has been identified with the modern Diban, about 3
    miles north of the Arnon and 12 miles east of the Dead Sea. (See
    Moabite Stone.)
      (2.) A city of the tribe of Judah, inhabited after the
    Captivity (Neh. 11:25); called also Dimonah (Josh. 15:22). It is
