Bint Jbeil (Arabic: بنت جبيل, romanizedBint Jubayl; Levantine pronunciation: [bɪnt ʒbeːl], "daughter of (the) little mountain" or "daughter of Byblos") is the second largest town in the Nabatiye Governorate in Southern Lebanon.

The town has an estimated population of 30,000. Its exact population is unknown, because Lebanon has not conducted a population census since 1932.[1]
