利比拉，圣经中的一个军事要地，其名意为“肥沃土地”、“征战止息”、“丰收”。其地位于哈马以南、大马色西北，适合屯兵，进可攻退可守。其旧址在黎巴嫩巴勒贝克东北100多里。有奥朗特河水源、黎巴嫩的森林，还有伯拉河以西的沃土。南面有峻岭，可作屏障。

《圣经》记载犹大第17代国王约哈斯继位仅3月，作恶多端。埃及王法老尼哥将其囚禁在利比拉，并罚没他大量金银。约哈斯最后死于埃及。犹大的第19代国王约雅斤被巴比伦王掳走，西底家成为犹大新王。然而西底家背叛了巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒，后者围攻耶路撒冷，捕获了落荒而逃的西底家。西底家被带到利比拉，他的儿子们被当面杀死，他的眼睛也被挖去。西底家被押往巴比伦，犹大王国覆灭。

The ancient town of Riblah (meaning "fruitful"), today a tell covered by a cemetery not far from the town of Ribleh on the Syrian side of the border with Lebanon, was in biblical times located on the northern frontier of the land of Canaan. The site lays on the eastern bank of the Orontes, in a wide and fertile plain, 35 miles north-east of Baalbek and 10 or 12 south of the artificial Lake Homs created by the Romans.
