/doeubi/ > /dojoːbi/

Compound of 土曜 (doyō, Saturn (the planet), in reference also to the day for that planet, as originally imported from Chinese astrology in the Heian period) +‎ (hi, day).[1][2][3] The hi changes to bi as an instance of rendaku (連濁).

The compound form suffixed with (hi, day) appears in common use from the Meiji period with the promulgation of the Gregorian calendar. See also Names of the days of the week on Wikipedia.Wikipedia
