Multi Condition Statement to Set a Variable

I am looking to create a variable called DIFF that is set to a specific number based on the value of a text string called STATUS.  Basically - 

If STATUS=Submitted then DIFF=14

or

If STATUS=Active then DIFF=21

or

If STATUS=OnHold then DIFF=28

 

What would be the syntax for this?  Thanks in advance.
