Akkadian
dibiru - a calamity
(CAD D 134, AHw. 168)
Unclear
According to CAD, probably a logogram the reading of which is unknown
(a Sumerism?) in one context used together with mūtānu (’calamity and pestilence’?).
This word is reasonably compared to Hbr. and Arb. by von Soden.

diˀu - a grave disease characterized by a headache
(CAD D 165, AHw. 174)
Cf. damû ‘to suffer from convulsions’ SB (CAD D 80, AHw. 166), dimītu ‘a disease (paralysis, dizziness (?), poisoning of the flesh’ CAD D 143. Though *VwV > VmV is normal for this period, these forms may also go back to the root *dmw/y (see *dwm ‘to be giddy; have pain in the head’, SED I No. 11v).
