Zephaniah 1-3
God promises good things for the humble and meek, while pronouncing harsh judgment on the haughty. It's interesting that we too share similar feelings for people with these attributes. I know of no one who enjoys the company of someone who is stuck on themselves, while the humble are pleasant friends with whom we derive much pleasure. Since God has created us in His image, in order to enjoy our companionship, it should come as no surprise that He sorts out those who are obnoxious. After all, He plans on spending eternity with His chosen ones, and He wants it to be pleasant for all who are there. Keeping this mind, one can understand the judgment just a little better.
