Deuteronomy 16:3
Good News Translation
When you eat this meal, do not eat bread prepared with yeast. For seven days you are to eat bread prepared without yeast, as you did when you had to leave Egypt in such a hurry. Eat this bread--it will be called the bread of suffering--so that as long as you live you will remember the day you came out of Egypt, that place of suffering.

New Revised Standard Version

New American Bible
You shall not eat leavened bread with it. For seven days you shall eat with it only unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, so that you may remember as long as you live the day you left the land of Egypt; for in hurried flight you left the land of Egypt.
