God is not a punishing God. there are many reasons from the Bible to prove and support this fact.
1. God is Love (1John 4:8,16) a God of Love cannot at the same time take pleasure in punishing people.
2.God is excellent in wisdom (Job 12:13, Romans 11:33, 1 Corinthians 2:7) God is a God of wisdom and understanding.
3.God is just and exercises justice (Deuteronomy 32:4, psalms 37:28) he is loyal and will not leave his righteous servants.
Ezekiel 33:10-19, pay close attention to verse 11, it shows that Jehovah does not delight in the death of the wicked but that if he will actually turn back from his wicked ways so to keep living.
Jehovah want humans to obey him and keep living, he is a merciful and forgiving God but he will not give exemption from punishment those who continue to disobey him. A good example was the case of Eli 's children in 1samuel 3:14.(please read)

Is there anything in resemblance to an angel but not a devil that punishes the sinners in Bible?
Devil does not punish sinners because he wants everyone to sin. Angels do not punish in the Bible except under God's command because it is God who can punish. It is God's authority and God's alone. Because Jesus died on the cross to forgive our sins and through God's grace, forgiveness and not punishment is what He desires.
