-The abstract noun "prohibition" can be translated as the verb "prohibit." See how you translated "prohibition" in [Daniel 6:7](../06/07.md). Alternate translation: "tell the people that you are prohibiting them from doing what they have been doing" or "tell people to stop doing what they have been doing" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]])
