OK, here is another Amos question.

In 7:10-17 Amos conflicts with Amaziah. I am looking for other examples of similar conflicts. The pattern is like this: evil person rebukes prophet: the Lord gives the prophet a reply.
So far the examples I have found are:
Micaiah vs. Zedekiah in 1 Kings 22
Jeremiah vs. Hananiah in Jeremiah 28
Jeremiah vs. various false prophets in exile, esp. Shemaiah in Jeremiah 29.
Paul vs. Ananias in Acts 23 (although here the analogy is obviously a little more partial)

Am I missing any?
