דָּיֵק (from the Ch. and Syr. root דּוּק to look out), m. a watch-tower, place to look out, as erected by besiegers, i.q. בַּהַן and Syr. ܕܘܰܩܐܳ, commonly collect. 2 Kings 25:1; Jeremiah 52:4; Ezekiel 4:2, 17:17 21:27 26:8. There is often said בָּנָה דָיֵק, once נָתַן Ezekiel 26:8. J. D. Michaëlis, whom I formerly followed, understood it to be a wall of circumvallation, cast up by besiegers, Eircumvallationslinie (LXX. in the book of Kings, περίτειχος); but compare Rosenm. on Ezekiel 4:2 also Barhebr. p. 206; he erected a tower ܠܕܘܰܩܳܐ for looking out, keeping watch.
