Gevurah or Geburah (, Tiberian: Găḇūrā, lit. 'strength'), is the fifth sephirah in the kabbalistic Tree of Life, and it is the second of the emotive attributes of the sephirot. It sits below Binah, across from Chesed and above Hod.

Gevurah is "the essence of judgment (DIN) and limitation", and corresponds to awe and the element of fire.
