“Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning;…"

 

Luke 12:35(NKJV)

“Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning; 

 

I get the your lamps burning part.  I wasn't sure what "let your waist be girded" meant.

 

I'm generally not a big fan of alternate translations of the Bible but here is a case where it helped.  One of the alternate translations has it as "be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.".  That makes sense to me.
