From a metathesis of Aramaic בֵּיסָדְיָא (bēsāḏyā) with an initial /b/ resulting in /p/. Itself a contraction of בֵּית אִיסָדָא (bêṯ ʾĕsāḏā, literally “place of the foundation; thing placed beneath to rest upon”), ultimately Proto-Semitic in origin; compare also found in Classical Syriac ܒܣܕܝܐ (bēsāḏyā), as well as in Arabic وِسَادَة (wisāda), Hebrew יְסוֹד (yesód, “base, foundation”), Ugaritic 𐎊𐎒𐎄 (ysd, “base, foundation”) and Akkadian 𒅖𒁲 (/išdu/, “base, foundation”).
