Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
καταισχύνω kataischýnō, kat-ahee-skhoo'-no; from G2596 and G153; to shame down, i.e. disgrace or (by implication) put to the blush:—confound, dishonour, (be a-, make a-)shame(-d).
STRONGS G2617:
καταισχύνω; passive, imperfect κατησχυνομην; 1 aorist κατῃσχύνθην; future καταισχυνθήσομαι; the Sept. chiefly for הֵבִישׁ and הֹבִישׁ; as in Greek writings from Homer down;
1. to dishonor, disgrace: τήν κεφαλήν, 1 Corinthians 11:4f (σποδῷ τήν κεφαλήν, Josephus, Antiquities 20, 4, 2).
2. to put to shame, make ashamed: τινα 1 Corinthians 1:27; 1 Corinthians 11:22; passive to be ashamed, blush with shame: Luke 13:17; 2 Corinthians 7:14; 2 Corinthians 9:4: 1 Peter 3:16; by a Hebrew usage one is said to be put to shame who suffers a repulse, or whom some hope has deceived; hence, ἐλπίς οὐ καταισχύνει, does not disappoint: Romans 5:5 (cf. Psalm 21:6 (Ps. 22:6); Psalm 24:2f (Ps. 25:2f); Psalm 118:116 (Ps. 119:116)); passive, Romans 9:33; Romans 10:11; 1 Peter 2:6 (Isaiah 28:16; Sir. 2:10).
