TSNTyndale Study Notes:

40:1-23 Joseph did not lose faith in God’s promises, as evidenced by his readiness to interpret the dreams of two prisoners. He was still convinced that God’s revelation in his own two dreams (37:5-11) was true, and he had not abandoned hope that they would be fulfilled. When the fellow prisoners’ dreams were fulfilled exactly as Joseph said, this confirmed that his previous dreams were from God.

Alternate translation: “And he asked them,”

מַדּ֛וּעַ פְּנֵי⁠כֶ֥ם רָעִ֖ים הַ⁠יּֽוֹם

why your_all's=faces sad the=day

Some languages have an idiom that fits well here. Do what is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Why do your faces look so downcast today?” or “Why do you look so sad today?”
