The Greek word translated as "frustrate" is that of "set aside".

The ancient Greek word "ἄθετος" ≈ "set aside, out of position, unfixed" from the negating alpha prefix and "θετός" ≈ "placed, put, adopted". The Latin word "abicio" ≈ "throw or hurl down, give up, overthrow, sell cheaply".

ουκ αθετω την χαριν του θεου ει γαρ δια νομου δικαιοσυνη αρα χριστος δωρεαν απεθανεν [gnt]

non abicio gratiam … legem iustitia … gratis mortuus … [v]

The Greek word translated as "vain" is that of "free gift". Saying: do not look a gift horse in the mouth.

The ancient Greek word "δωρεάν" ≈ "free gift"and is the source, through the Greek and later Latin name, of the English name "Dorothy" as, literally, "gift" of "God". The Latin word "gratis" ≈ "free gift" and is the source of the English words "gratuity", "gratitude", etc. It is unclear how the KJV (King James Version) decided to translate the word as "vain".
