Sho'eva (Hebrew: שׁוֹאֵבָה‎) is a moshav in central Israel. Located west of Jerusalem, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2015 it had a population of 580.

The moshav was established as a work village in 1950 by immigrants from Yemen on land that had belonged to the Arab village of Saris, which was destroyed in 1948. Although the village closed in 1952, it was re-established in 1959.
