EDIT: What new edition of the Bible are you reading? The bible actually says, "...for in the day that you eat of it, thou shalt surely die." Why? Because it's true that it happened just as he predicted. Not "when" you eat of it, but "in the day" you eat of it. SO there.
I'm not sure if you're being facetious or not, which is a reflection of my poor skills at this sort of thing. Nonetheless, to play the straight man, NIV uses that translation.
Genesis 2:17; NIV - but you must not eat from the tree of - Bible Gateway;
So one would expect that Zondervan's army of NIVlets would use the same translation.
