God never said they would die that day. He said in Genesis 2:17 "... for when you eat of it you will surely die."
KJV writes:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
NIV writes:
17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."
I see you used the NIV. Note that "when you eat of it" determines a time. And that agrees with the KJV.
You seem to have a language comprehension problem.
