Verb perizōnnymi (to gird) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV with a few modifications for a more literal meaning)


Luke

12: 35"Let your loins be girded (perizōnnymi) about and have your lamps lit;
12: 37Blessed are those slaves whom the master finds alert when he comes; truly I tell you, he shall gird (perizōnnymi) himself and have them sit down to eat, and he will come and serve them.
17: 8Would you not rather say to him, 'Prepare supper for me, gird (perizōnnymi) yourself and serve me while I eat and drink; later you may eat and drink'?
