ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ

in in righteousness

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of righteousness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [by his own righteous standards]

ἐν ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὥρισεν

in in by ˓a˒_man ˱to˲_whom ˱he˲_designated

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

ἐκ νεκρῶν
