Try using a case statement:

File.open("destination.txt", "w") do |out|
   File.foreach("original.txt") do |line|
     out.puts line
     line2 = case line
             when /REGEX_1/ then "NEW_LINE_1"
             when /REGEX_2/ then "NEW_LINE_2"
             when /REGEX_3/ then "NEW_LINE_3"
              end
     out.puts line2 if line2
   end
end
