Read the following examples of the verb 'to let':
- He isn't guilty. Let him off (don't punish him).
- After the match I felt let up (no more strength)
- He let me down and I couldn't believe him any more (was bad to me).
- Don't let him in. He will eat everything.

There are some examples:
- Let the fresh air in, I can barely breathe.
- He let me on the whole truth and let me down. (tell the truth; it disappointed me)
- John let the bomb off and there were many injured people. Thanks God, nobody died (explode)
