Exodus 12:15

Seven days, unleavened cakes, shall ye eat, surely, on the first day, shall ye put away leaven, out of your houses,—for whosoever eateth what is leavened, then shall that soul be cut off out of Israel, from the first day, unto the seventh day.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

In Context

14So shall this day serve you for a memorial, and ye shall celebrate it, as a festival to Yahweh,—to your generations—as an age-abiding statute, shall ye celebrate it.

16Both on the first day, a holy convocation, and on the seventh day—a holy convocation, shall there be to you,—no work, shall be done therein, save only what must be eaten by every soul, that alone, shall be done by you.
