belt, girdle (noun); a waist band or restraint
This noun denotes a belt or girdle, possibly a loanword from Egyptian. Psalm 109:19 uses it in simile—let the wicked's curse enfold him 'like a garment' and 'like a belt.' Isaiah 23:10 employs it metaphorically for restraint, though the text is disputed. The word emphasizes the binding, encircling function of a belt worn at the waist. The Egyptian etymology (if correct) suggests possible borrowing of both the garment and its name from Egypt.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Refers to a belt or girdle worn at the waist, used literally (Ps 109:19) in simile for curse binding the wicked as clothing and belt bind the body, and figuratively (Isa 23:10) for restraint (though this text is uncertain). Spanish uses 'cinturón' and 'cinto' (belt/girdle), German 'belt,' French 'agrafe' (clasp/fastener). If the Egyptian loanword theory is correct, this may represent a specific style of Egyptian waist-belt adopted into Israelite dress. 2×
