And she conceived {H2029} again, and bare {H3205} a son {H1121}: and she said {H559}, Now {H6471} will I praise {H3034} the LORD {H3068}: therefore she called {H7121} his name {H8034} Judah {H3063}; and left {H5975} bearing {H3205}.

She conceived yet again, had a son and said, "This time I will praise ADONAI"; therefore she named him Y'hudah [praise]. Then she stopped having children.

And once more she conceived and gave birth to a son and said, “This time I will praise the LORD.” So she named him Judah. Then Leah stopped having children.
