Exegesis
The phrase ʿal Dîmôn nōsāpōṯ {עַל דִּימוֹן נוֹסָפ֑וֹת | ʿal dîmôn nō-sā-pō-ṯ} ‘upon Dimon additions’ heightens the sense of increasing judgment.
In context — Isaiah 15:9
For the waters of Dimon are full of blood, yet I will bring more upon Dimon: a lion upon those who escape from Moab and upon the remnant of the land.
