1 Chronicles 4:9
Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible
And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying: ‘Because I bore him with pain.’
Now Jabez (note: Jabez sounds like the Hebrew for pain or distress.) was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.”
