OET interlinear TIT 2:6

2:6

In the same way: This phrase indicates that Paul’s next comments are similar to what he just said. In Greek it is the same word that the BSB translates as “likewise” in 2:3.

Here are some other ways to translate it:

Likewise (NRSV)

Similarly (NIV)

urge the younger men to be self-controlled: The Greek word that the BSB translates as urge means to convince someone to think or behave in a particular way. See how you translated it in 1:9 and translate it the same way in both places.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

urge the young men to be sensible (NASB)

urge the younger men to control themselves (RSV)

Encourage young men to use good judgment (GW)

the younger men: This phrase probably refers to men between 20 and 40 years old.

to be self-controlled: This Greek word refers to someone who is thoughtful about how he behaves, is not impulsive and avoids extremes. See how you translated it in 1:8, 2:2 and 2:5 and translate it the same in all four places.
