OET (OET-RV)“We each had a dream last night,” they answered, “but there’s no one here who can tell us what our dreams mean.”
¶ God is the only one who gives someone the ability to interpret the meaning of dreams,” Yosef replied. “Please tell me what you dreamed.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

וַ⁠יֹּאמְר֣וּ אֵלָ֔י⁠ו

and=they_said to=him/it

Alternate translation: “They replied,”

חֲל֣וֹם חָלַ֔מְנוּ

(a)_dream dreamed

Alternate translation: “Last night we each had a dream,”

וּ⁠פֹתֵ֖ר אֵ֣ין אֹת֑⁠וֹ

and,interpret not DOM=him/it

Alternate translation: “but we do not have anyone here to explain them for us.”

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

וַ⁠יֹּ֨אמֶר אֲלֵ⁠הֶ֜ם יוֹסֵ֗ף

and=he/it_said to,them Yōşēf/(Joseph)

Alternate translation: “So Joseph replied,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

הֲ⁠ל֤וֹא לֵֽ⁠אלֹהִים֙ פִּתְרֹנִ֔ים

am=not belong_to,God interpretations

Joseph uses this rhetorical question to emphasize that God is the only one who interprets dreams. Consider what is the best way to communicate that in your language. Alternate translation: “God is the only one who can explain the meaning of dreams.” or “God is the only one who gives people the ability to interpret the meaning of dreams.”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

סַפְּרוּ נָ֖א לִֽ⁠י

tell now to=me

Make sure that your translation of the last two sentences in this verse does not sound like Joseph is claiming to be God. Rather, he is saying that if the two officials tell their dreams to him, God will enable him to interpret the dreams. Alternate translation: “Please tell your dreams to me and God will reveal to me what they mean.”

TSN Tyndale 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.

OET (OET-RV)“We each had a dream last night,” they answered, “but there’s no one here who can tell us what our dreams mean.”
¶ God is the only one who gives someone the ability to interpret the meaning of dreams,” Yosef replied. “Please tell me what you dreamed.”

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
