# General Information:

The chief cupbearer continues to speak to Pharaoh.

# There was with us there

"In prison there was with the chief baker and me"

# the captain of the guard

The soldier in charge of the royal guards. See how you translated this in [Genesis 40:2-3](../40/01.md).

# We told him and he interpreted for us our dreams

"We told him our dreams and he explained their meanings to us"

# He interpreted for each of us according to his dream

Here "his" refers to the cupbearer and baker individually, not to the one interpreting the dream. AT: "He explained what was going to happen to both of us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])

# It came about

This phrase is used here to mark an important event in the story. If your language has a way for doing this, you could consider using it here.

# as he interpreted for us, so it happened

"what he explained about the dreams is what later happened"

# Pharaoh restored me to my post

Here the cupbearer uses Pharaoh's title in speaking to him as a way of honoring him. AT: "You allowed me to return to my job" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])

# the other one

"the chief baker"

# he hanged

Here "he" refers to Pharaoh. And, it stands for the soldiers that Pharaoh commanded to hang the chief baker. AT: "you ordered your soldiers to hang" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
