Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:6 -

In a similar way urge the young men to be sensible and self-controlled and to behave wisely [taking life seriously].

Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:13 - awaiting and confidently expecting the [fulfillment of our] blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:14 - who [willingly] gave Himself [to be crucified] on our behalf to redeem us and purchase our freedom from all wickedness, and to purify for Himself a chosen and very special people to be His own possession, who are enthusiastic for doing what is good.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:15 -

Tell them these things. Encourage and rebuke with full authority. Let no one disregard or despise you [conduct yourself and your teaching so as to command respect].
