Genesis 30:20

וַתֹּ֣אמֶר לֵאָ֗ה זְבָדַ֨נִי אֱלֹהִ֥ים אֹתִי֮ זֵ֣בֶד טֹוב֒ הַפַּ֨עַם֙ יִזְבְּלֵ֣נִי אִישִׁ֔י כִּֽי־יָלַ֥דְתִּי לֹ֖ו שִׁשָּׁ֣ה בָנִ֑ים וַתִּקְרָ֥א אֶת־שְׁמֹ֖ו זְבֻלֽוּן׃

And Leʾa said, “God has endowed me with a good gift; this time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” So she called his name Zebulun.
