Exegesis
The direct object marker et-yoav {אֶת־יוֹאָֽב | ʾet-yō-ʾāḇ} ‘Joab’ identifies Joab as the experiencer. The translation shifts the Hebrew VSO order into English SVO and uses ‘because’ to render the causal relationship while maintaining emphasis on Joab’s moral response.
In context — 1 Chronicles 21:6
But Levi and Benjamin were not counted among them, because the king’s command was loathsome to Joab.
