36. 2 Corinthians 1:17-19 Paul and yes-yes no-no
2 Corinthians 1:17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay? [kjv]
τουτο ουν βουλομενος μητι αρα τη ελαφρια εχρησαμην η α βουλευομαι κατα σαρκα βουλευομαι ινα η παρ εμοι το ναι ναι και το ου ου [gnt]
1:18 But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay. [kjv]
πιστος δε ο θεος οτι ο λογος ημων ο προς υμας ουκ εστιν ναι και ου [gnt]
1:19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea. [kjv]
ο του θεου γαρ υιος χριστος ιησους ο εν υμιν δι ημων κηρυχθεις δι εμου και σιλουανου και τιμοθεου ουκ εγενετο ναι και ου αλλα ναι εν αυτω γεγονεν [gnt]

Paul appears to be referring to what Jesus said in three successive verses in 2 Corinthians 1:17-19. Paul adds "and" between ""yes"" "yes" and "no" "no". The wording of the last verse appears to agree with what Jesus was actually saying in Matthew 5 which can explain the added "and" in the previous two verses.
