STRONGS G390:
ἀναστρέφω: future ἀναστρέψω; [1 aorist ἀνέστρεψα; passive, present ἀναστρέφομαι]; 2 aorist ἀνεστράφην;
1. to turn upside down, overturn: τὰς τραπέζας, John 2:15, (δίφρους, Homer, Iliad 23, 436).
2. to turn back; intransitive, [Winers Grammar, 251 (236)] to return, like the Latin reverto equivalent to revertor (as in Greek writings; in the Sept. equivalent to שׁוּב): Acts 5:22; Acts 15:16 (here ἀναστρέψω καί has not like the Hebrew שׁוּב the force of an adverb, again, but God in the Messiah's advent returns to his people, whom he is conceived of as having previously abandoned; cf. Winer's Grammar, 469 (437)).
3. to turn hither and thither; passive reflexively, to turn oneself about, sojourn, dwell, ἐν in a place;
a. literally: Matthew 17:22, where L T WH Tr text συστρεφομένων, cf. Keim, ii., p. 581 [English translation, iv., p. 303]. (Joshua 5:5; Ezekiel 19:6, and in Greek writings).
b. like the Hebrew הָלַךְ to walk, of the manner of life and moral character, to conduct oneself, behave oneself, live: 2 Corinthians 1:12 (ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ); 1 Timothy 3:15 (ἐν οἴκῳ θεοῦ); Ephesians 2:3 (ἐν οἷς among whom); 2 Peter 2:18 (ἐν πλάνῃ). simply to conduct or behave oneself, 'walk', (German wandeln): 1 Peter 1:17; Hebrews 10:33; (καλῶς) Hebrews 13:18. [Cf. its use e. g. in Xenophon, an. 2, 5, 14; Polybius 1, 9, 7; 74, 13; 86, 5 etc. (see ἀναστροφή, at the end); Proverbs 20:7 Sept.; Clement of Rome, 1 Cor. 1, 21, 8; etc.]
