Understanding the surrounding verses prevents misinterpretation:

And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi; for he dwelt in the south country.

And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels {were} coming. {to meditate: or, to pray}

And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel.

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.

And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.
