For she [had] said unto the servant, What man [is] this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant [had] said, It [is] my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself.
Geneva Bible - (For she had said to the servant, Who is yonder man, that cometh in the field
to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master.) So she took (f) a veil, and covered her.
(f) The custom was that the spouse was brought to her husband, her head being covered in token of
shamefastness and chastity.
