Loathe is a verb meaning
to hate someone or something
Example:
From an early age the brothers have loathed each other.
Loath is an adjective meaning
to be unwilling to do something
Example:
I'm loath to spend it all at once.
To summarize, the two words are used in different parts of the sentence, and the verb (loathe) expresses a much stronger negative emotion compared to the adjective (loath).
