Psalms 99:8

Thou answeredst them, O Lord, our God; Thou wast a God that forgavest them, the entire people of the children of Israel, though Thou tookest vengeance of their inventions, punishing them for their misdeeds, for their acts of rebellion. Forgiveness does not include the remission of the punishment which attaches to many sins; the chastening, rather, works greater humility.
