Exegesis
The accusative hekaston {ἕκαστον | hé-kas-ton} individualizes the response, and the prepositional phrase apo tōn ponēriōn humōn {ἀπὸ τῶν πονηριῶν ὑμῶν | a-pò tōn po-nē-ri-ôn hy-môn} defines the sphere of this turning as a break from “your evil deeds.” In translation, the participial and infinitival structures are rendered with “having raised up” and “by turning … away” to preserve both the sequence of divine actions and the instrumental nuance of the articular infinitive, while rearranging elements into a more natural subject–verb–object order in English.
In context — Acts 3:26
To you first, God , having raised up His servant , sent Him to bless you by turning each of you away from your evil deeds .
