| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ (“in/at”) + proper noun, feminine singular place name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the preposition בְּ (“in/at”) prefixed to the proper noun רִבְלָה, a toponym referring exclusively to the Syrian city Riblah. Since the root meaning is uncertain and the term functions solely as a place name, the rendering preserves the prepositional form and proper name without speculative etymology. |
