Explanation: This word is a verb meaning 'to gird oneself' or 'to put on a belt'. In ancient times, people wore long robes, and to prepare for action (like running, working, or fighting), they would 'gird' themselves by tucking up their robes and securing them with a belt. It can also metaphorically mean to prepare oneself for a task or a spiritual battle. In some contexts, it can refer to putting on sackcloth as a sign of mourning or repentance.
