Exegesis
The prohibition is conveyed by the negative particle Mē {Μὴ | mḗ} combined with the present active imperative kōlyete {κωλύετε | kō-lý-e-te}, forming a general command against hindering the agent.
In context — Mark 9:39
But Jesus said, “Do not forbid him, for no one who performs a mighty work in My name will quickly be able to speak evil of Me.”
