And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the name of his city was Dinhabah.

Dinhabah х Dinhaabaah (H1838)] - place of plundering; i:e., robbers' den (Gesenius); probably an early haunt of the predatory Horites. Eusebius and Jerome state that there was a village so called, eight miles from Areopolis, on the road to Arnon. "The name of his city" is a phrase which occurs several times in this list, apparently to mark a native king, while the preposition х mi- (H4480)] "from" - "from Masrekah," "from Rehoboth" - indicates a foreigner.
