Genesis 40:5

וַיַּֽחַלְמוּ֩ חֲלֹ֨ום שְׁנֵיהֶ֜ם אִ֤ישׁ חֲלֹמֹו֙ בְּלַ֣יְלָה אֶחָ֔ד אִ֖ישׁ כְּפִתְרֹ֣ון חֲלֹמֹ֑ו הַמַּשְׁקֶ֣ה וְהָאֹפֶ֗ה אֲשֶׁר֙ לְמֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרַ֔יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲסוּרִ֖ים בְּבֵ֥ית הַסֹּֽהַר׃

And they both dreamed a dream, each man his dream, in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Mitsrayim (Egypt), who were confined in the prison house.
