1 Samuel 17:28-29
17:28 When David’s oldest brother Eliab heard him speaking to the men, he became angry with David and said, “Why have you come down here? To whom did you entrust those few sheep in the desert? I am familiar with your pride and deceit! You have come down here to watch the battle!”
17:29 David replied, “What have I done now? Can’t I say anything?”

John 12:4-6
12:4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was going to betray him)
said,
12:5 “Why wasn’t this oil sold for three hundred silver coins
and the money
given to the poor?”
12:6 (Now Judas
said this not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money box,
he used to steal what was put into it.)
