and,dreamed (a)_dream both_of=them (a)_man dream_of,his_own in/on/at/with,night one(ms)

Alternate translation: [Then one night the two of them each had a dream] or [One night they both had a dream]

אִ֖ישׁ כְּ⁠פִתְר֣וֹן חֲלֹמ֑⁠וֹ

(a)_man as/like,meaning_of dream_of,its_own

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: [and each of the dreams had its own meaning] or [each with its own meaning]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

הַ⁠מַּשְׁקֶ֣ה וְ⁠הָ⁠אֹפֶ֗ה אֲשֶׁר֙ לְ⁠מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרַ֔יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲסוּרִ֖ים בְּ⁠בֵ֥ית הַ⁠סֹּֽהַר

the,cupbearer and,the,baker which/who of,king_of Miʦrayim/(Egypt) which/who confined in=house_of the,prison

Many translations leave this sentence implied because it repeats information from the previous verses and may sound too repetitive. Or you could put this sentence earlier in this verse and say, “One night, the king of Egypt’s wine server and baker each had a dream while they were in prison, and each man’s/one’s dream had its own interpretation/meaning.” Make sure it is clear in your translation that the cupbearer and baker in verse 5 are the same officials as those in verses 2-4. Alternate translation: [This is talking about the wine-server and the baker, who had served the king of Egypt but were in prison]
