Translation

[Meaning] filled [sc. with rain] by Zeus.¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Διιπετέος· τοῦ ὑπὸ Διὸς πληρουμένου.

Betacode

*diipete/os: tou= u(po\ *dio\s plhroume/nou.

Notes (1)

Likewise or similarly in other lexica, including Apollonius' Homeric Lexicon. The headword (a single word in the Greek) is the genitive singular of the epic adjective diipeth/s; from the scholia to Homer, Iliad 17.263, where it occurs.

1For example, of a stream swollen with rain fallen from the "heavens".
