Abraham's dealings with the King of Sodom come to mind. (Genesis 14:21-24; see the whole chapter for context.)
21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
23 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.

John 17:10 is similar:
All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. John 17:10 NIV84

Genesis 2:16-17 is the closest that comes immediately to my mind. (quoted from NIV):
16And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
