Thayer's Greek Lexicon
ἐνυπνιάζω (ἐνύπνιον, which see): to dream (Aristotle, h. an. 4, 10, etc.), and deponent ἐνυπνιάζομαι (Hippocrates, Plutarch, Brut c. 24); so always in the Bible, for çÈìÇí, with future passive ἐνυπνιασθήσομαι, and common with aorist passive ἐνυπνιάσθην, more rarely middle ἐνυπνιασάμην (Gen 37:9; Jdg 7:13); ἐνύπνια ἐνυπνιάζεσθαι (in the Sept. for çÀìåîåú çÈìÇí), to dream (divinely suggested) dreams: Act 2:17 from (Joe 2:28); but the reading ἐνυπνίοις (ἐνυπνιάζεσθαι) was long ago restored, which reading also manuscript Alex. gives in Joel. Metaphorically, to be beguiled with sensual images and carried away to an impious course of conduct: Jud 1:8.
