OET (OET-LV) Let_them_whirl over the_head of_Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and_near/to all the_house his/its_father and_never let_him_be_cut_off from_house of_Yōʼāⱱ [one_who]_suffers_a_discharge and_leprosy and_holds in/on/at/with_spindle and_falls in/on/at/with_sword and_lacks of_bread.
OET (OET-RV) May Yoav’s extended family continually suffer from sores or leprosy, and be forced into manual labour or be killed in battle, or run out of food to eat.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
(Occurrence 0) fall on the head of Joab and on all his father’s house
(Some words not found in UHB: fall on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and=near/to all/each/any/every house_of his/its=father and,never be_without from,house Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) has_a_discharge and,leprosy and,holds in/on/at/with,spindle and,falls in/on/at/with,sword and,lacks food )
This phrase means the results of the guilt will happen to Joab and his family as if something heavy had collapsed on them. Alternate translation: “always cause suffering for Joab and for all his father’s house”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) all his father’s house
(Some words not found in UHB: fall on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and=near/to all/each/any/every house_of his/its=father and,never be_without from,house Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) has_a_discharge and,leprosy and,holds in/on/at/with,spindle and,falls in/on/at/with,sword and,lacks food )
Here “house” refers to descendants. Alternate translation: “all the descendants of Joab’s father”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / litotes
(Occurrence 0) May there never fail to be
(Some words not found in UHB: fall on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and=near/to all/each/any/every house_of his/its=father and,never be_without from,house Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) has_a_discharge and,leprosy and,holds in/on/at/with,spindle and,falls in/on/at/with,sword and,lacks food )
This double negative emphasizes that there will always be someone with the problems listed. Alternate translation: “May there always be”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
(Occurrence 0) is killed by the sword
(Some words not found in UHB: fall on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in head Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) and=near/to all/each/any/every house_of his/its=father and,never be_without from,house Yōʼāⱱ/(Joab) has_a_discharge and,leprosy and,holds in/on/at/with,spindle and,falls in/on/at/with,sword and,lacks food )
Here “sword” refers to violent death. Alternate translation: “dies violently”
3:29 leprosy: While leprosy is a possible translation, the Hebrew here probably refers to a broader range of skin inflammations, not only Hansen’s disease.
• who walks on crutches: This curse effectively alienated Joab from David, and from this point on they had only a professional relationship. David’s deathbed order to Solomon to get rid of Joab (1 Kgs 2:5-6) and Solomon’s exoneration of David in Abner’s death (1 Kgs 2:31-33) indicate that David’s mourning over Abner was genuine.

OET (OET-RV) May Yoav’s extended family continually suffer from sores or leprosy, and be forced into manual labour or be killed in battle, or run out of food to eat.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
