From Easton: Girdle - (1.) Heb. hagor, a girdle of any kind worn by soldiers (1 Samuel 18:4; 2 Samuel 20:8; 1 Kings 2:5; 2 Kings 3:21) or women (Isaiah 3:24).

(4.) Heb. 'abnet, the girdle of sacerdotal and state officers (Exodus 28:4, Exodus 28:39, Exodus 28:40; Exodus 29:9; Exodus 39:29).

...

The girdle was a symbol of strength and power (Job 12:18, Job 12:21; Job 30:11; Isaiah 22:21; Isaiah 45:5). "Righteousness and faithfulness" are the girdle of the Messiah (Isaiah 11:5).
