Disappoint
Disappoint
dis-a-point: To disappoint may be used transitively or intransitively. In the former case it naturally has a more forceful meaning. Therefore the Revised Version (British and American) changes the translation of the King James Version wherever disappoint is used with an object: Job 5:12, frustrateth; Psa 17:13, confront him, the Revised Version, margin forestall; Judith 16:6, brought them to nought; but the Revised Version (British and American) retains disappoint where the person wh disappoints is not expressed. Compare Pro 15:22.
