"The soul that sinneth--it shall die."
Unless of course, when God looks upon you He sees the perfect righteousness of His Son, Jesus, as if you have never sinned once.

We all sin. That's a fact.
We are souls. Another fact.
Genesis 2:7 states that God blew into Adams nostrils and he became a living soul. And God told Adam that if he ate of the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Bad, he would die. If God was going to send him to hell to burn forever for disobeying him, why didn't God tell him that? Instead he told him he would return to the dust that he came from. (Gen. 2:17 ; Gen. 3:19)
So when you read this next scripture, you will see that it is talkig about dead, not knowing anything, like being asleep.
Eccl. 9:5: “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all.”
Ps. 146:4: “His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts [“thoughts,” KJ, 145:4 in Dy; “all his thinking,” NE; “plans,” RS, NAB] do perish.”

There are no souls, and sin is an outdated concept.
Souls are superstition. Sorry, but your body and brain are all that there is of you. When you die, you are just dead. The only life you have after death is in the memories of others.
Sin is judgement by people of other people and things. It is not a substance of some kind. It is not a characteristic of something. When a person says that something is evil, that says more about the person than it does about the something. If I say that something is good or bad, I am telling you my opinion. I'm not saying anything objective about the something. You can't measure the of evil in something like you can the blueness of something or the density of something.

If the sinful soul repents and serves the Lord, Eternal Life.
If not, Eternal Strife, Damnation, and suffering.

The Bible says that it shall die.
However, God has a remedy for sin, found only in the Lord Jesus Christ, who took our punishment on the cross.
He paid the price which we could not pay.
It's only through receiving forgiveness for our sin can that debt be cancelled.

Ezekiel 18:4 "Look! All the souls—to me they belong. As the soul of the father so likewise the soul of the son—to me they belong. The soul that is sinning—it itself will die."
So, it dies. !

The soul is what your spirit is called; while it is in this inferior human body. You die and give up your soul [which is now called a spirit]. Then your judgement comes from God, and the Word, says that the soul that sinneth against me is doomed!

I suppose that depends on your believe. But since you mentioned Sin, and christianity is one of the few that recognize "sin" as being an actuality, I would assume you would suffer the consequences of the christian god.

Sins are man-made.
God is All-That-Is, thus there is no "sin."
