Genesis 41:49-51
New Living Translation
49 He piled up huge amounts of grain like sand on the seashore. Finally, he stopped keeping records because there was too much to measure.
50 During this time, before the first of the famine years, two sons were born to Joseph and his wife, Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, the priest of On. 51 Joseph named his older son Manasseh,[a] for he said, “God has made me forget all my troubles and everyone in my father’s family.”

- 41:51 Manasseh sounds like a Hebrew term that means “causing to forget.”
