Psalms 139:13-16
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

Can you be a bit more specific? In the cultures of the world when and where the Bible was written, societies were collective in their thinking and behaviour. Individuality is a recent development, historically, with societies that had more leisure time.
Even in Christianity, it is quite often seen in a collective setting, such as the "church."

1Cr 15:33 Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals."
1Cr 15:34 Become sober-minded as you ought, and stop sinning; for some have no knowledge of God. I speak {this} to your shame.
You can follow the crowd (and do what everybody else does), or you can take a moral stand and do what is right.

Jonathon beat me to the very scripture I would have suggested. I can't think of a better answer!
