UTNuW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יְהִ֡י מֵ⁠אָז֩

and=he/it_was from,time

Alternate translation: “Beginning from the time that”

הִפְקִ֨יד אֹת֜⁠וֹ בְּ⁠בֵית֗⁠וֹ וְ⁠עַל֙ כָּל אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֶשׁ ל֔⁠וֹ

made_~_overseer DOM=him/it in/on/at/with,house,his and,over all/each/any/every which/who he_is to=him/it

See how you translated “put him in charge … his house and … everything that was his” in verse 4. It is repeated in verse 5 in the Hebrew text to emphasize the authority that Joseph was given. Do what is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “he put him in charge of managing everything that belonged to him,”

וַ⁠יְבָ֧רֶךְ יְהוָ֛ה אֶת בֵּ֥ית הַ⁠מִּצְרִ֖י

and=he/it_blessed YHWH DOM house_of the,Egyptian's

Make sure it is clear in your translation of this chapter that “Egyptian,” “master,” and “Potiphar” all refer to the same person, not two or three different people.

בִּ⁠גְלַ֣ל יוֹסֵ֑ף

in/on/at/with,because_of Yōşēf/(Joseph)

Alternate translation: “because Joseph was working for him.”

וַ⁠יְהִ֞י בִּרְכַּ֤ת יְהוָה֙ בְּ⁠כָל אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֶשׁ ל֔⁠וֹ

and=he/it_was blessing YHWH in=all which/who he_is to=him/it

Alternate translation: “Yahweh blessed everything that belonged to him,” or “He caused everything that he owned to prosper,”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בַּ⁠בַּ֖יִת וּ⁠בַ⁠שָּׂדֶֽה

in/on/at/with,house and,in/on/at/with,field

In this context, house especially refers to the people in the house and fields refers to what is in the fields. Alternate translation: “including everything in his household and in his fields.” or “including his family and servants in his household, as well as the crops and livestock in his fields.”
