Proud boasting is what Zeus utterly abhors in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the chorus leader identifies Zeus the chief god's pet peeve just after the opening interaction between Theban Princesses Antigone and Ismene. He describes the prideful boasting in the case of Polyneices amassing an army of disgruntled Thebans and supportive Argives to attack his own hometown of Thebes. Ironically, Polyneices in reality can be said to be in the right for defending his legitimate claim to the Theban royal throne, and his claim is vindicated when his son Thersander takes over the throne and keeps it within the hands of his descendants.
