STRONGS G2675:
καταρτίζω; future καταρτίσω (1 Peter 5:10 L T Tr WH (Buttmann, 31 (32); but Rec. καταρτίσαι, 1 aorist optative 3 person singular)); 1 aorist infinitive καταρτίσαι; passive, present καταρτίζομαι; perfect κατήρτισμαι; 1 aorist middle 2 person singular κατηρτίσω; properly, "to render ἄρτιος, i. e. fit, sound, complete" (see κατά, III. 2); hence,
a. to mend (what has been broken or rent), to repair: τά δίκτυα, Matthew 4:21; Mark 1:19 (others reference these examples to next entry); equivalent to to complete, τά ὑστερήματα, 1 Thessalonians 3:10.

Buttmann, 311 (267); but others take κατηρτισμένος as a circumstantial participle "when perfected shall be as (not 'above') his master" (see Meyer, in the place cited); on this view the passage may be referred to the next entry), Luke 6:40; middle to fit or frame for oneself, prepare: αἶνον, Matthew 21:16 (from Psalm 8:3; the Sept. for יָסַד); σῶμα, Hebrews 10:5.
c. ethically, to strengthen, perfect, complete, make one what he ought to be: τινα (1 Peter 5:10 (see above)); Galatians 6:1 (of one who by correction may be brought back into the right way); passive, 2 Corinthians 13:11; τινα ἐν παντί ἔργῳ ((T WH omit)) ἀγαθῷ, Hebrews 13:21; κατηρτισμένοι ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ νοι κτλ., of those who have been restored to harmony (so πάντα εἰς τωὐτό, Herodotus 5, 106; ἵνα καταρτισθῇ ἡ στασιαζουσα πόλις, Dionysius Halicarnassus, Antiquities 3,10), 1 Corinthians 1:10.
