"Behoove" means, in the Free Dictionary.comVerb1.behoove - be appropriate or necessary; "It behooves us to reflect on this matter"

SO the antonym would be the opposite of that. So you could say the antonym for "behoove" would be

"hurts" or "injures" Instead of "It behooves us" it could be "It injures us." I couldn't think of an antonym that exactly reflects the way "behooves" is used, except for "it wouldn't behoove us." "Behoove" is basically an archaic subjunctive word, so there is probably another archaic word that would be its exact antonym, but I don't know what it is or how to find it.
