Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g1651 Greek: elencho

Convict (Including the Av, Convince):

signifies

(a) "to convict, confute, refute," usually with the suggestion of putting the convicted person to shame; see Mat 18:15, where more than telling the offender his fault is in view; it is used of "convicting" of sin, Jhn 8:46; 16:8; gainsayers in regard to the faith, Tts 1:9; transgressors of the Law, Jam 2:9; some texts have the verb in Jhn 8:9;

(b) "to reprove," 1Cr 14:24, RV (for AV, "convince"), for the unbeliever is there viewed as being reproved for, or "convicted" of, his sinful state; so in Luk 3:19; it is used of reproving works, Jhn 3:20; Eph 5:11, 13; 1Ti 5:20; 2Ti 4:2; Tts 1:13; 2:15; all these speak of reproof by word of mouth. In Hbr 12:5; Rev 3:19, the word is used of reproving by action.
See FAULT, REBUKE, REPROVE.

2 Strong's Number: g1827 Greek: exelencho

Convict (Including the Av, Convince):

an intensive form of No. 1, "to convict thoroughly," is used of the Lord's future "conviction" of the ungodly, Jud 1:15.

Note: For diakatelencho, "to confute powerfully in disputation," Act 18:28 (AV, "convinced"), see CONFUTE.
