Exegesis
This verb governs two complementary infinitives, metanoein {μετανοεῖν | meta-noeîn} ‘to repent’ and epistrephein {ἐπιστρέφειν | e-pi-stré-phein} ‘to turn’, joined by kai {καὶ | kaí}, forming a coordinated call for inner change and reorientation.
In context — Acts 26:20
But to those in Damascus first, and also in Jerusalem and all the region of Judea, and to the Gentiles , I was declaring that they should repent and turn to God , doing works worthy of repentance.
