First, in plain English
The King James has Easter once, at Acts 12:4, and the Greek word underneath it is pascha, Passover. Every later translation says so.
Who this is
The single King James Version appearance of the word Easter, in Acts 12:4, is a translation of the Greek word pascha, meaning Passover, not a reference to the later Christian holiday, and every modern translation renders the word correctly as Passover in that verse.
