What reason does Grendel give for being against Hrothgar?

He feels hatred towards everybody, especially Hrothgar, because he feels God blessed them, and not him. He has a strong dislike of the beautiful mead-hall Heorot, which Hrothgar built, because it shows the light, joy and music that he cannot enjoy. He is doomed to live alone in the darkness and frost.
