The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Quia aquæ Dibon repletæ sunt sanguine ; ponam enim super Dibon additamenta ; his qui fugerint de Moab leonem, et reliquiis terræ.
Septuagint (Swete)
τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ τὸ Δειμὼν πλησθήσεται αἵματος· ἐπάξω γὰρ ἐπὶ Δειμὼν Ἄραβας, καὶ ἀρῶ τὸ σπέρμα Μωὰβ καὶ Ἀριὴλ καὶ τὸ κατάλοιπον Ἀδαμά.
Hebrew (WLC)
כִּ֣י מֵ֤י דִימוֹן֙ מָ֣לְאוּ דָ֔ם כִּֽי אָשִׁ֥ית עַל דִּימ֖וֹן נוֹסָפ֑וֹת לִפְלֵיטַ֤ת מוֹאָב֙ אַרְיֵ֔ה וְלִשְׁאֵרִ֖ית אֲדָמָֽה

Haydock's commentary

Dibon. Septuagint, &c., read, "Dimon," which signifies, "blood." I will give it a better claim to this appellation.

Lion. Nabuchodonosor. (Calmet)

Septuagint, "I will bring the Arabs up on Dimon, and will take away the seed of Moab, and Ariel, and the remnant of Adama." (Haydock)
