A few thoughts:
The Bible tells us that if we suffer (because of doing RIGHT, and living a Christian life to please God), that's GOOD. On the other hand, if we suffer for doing bad, for being a murderer, thief (or other criminal behavior) we deserve the discipline we get.(1 Peter 4:14-16) So, we are told NOT to steal (Ephesians 4:28), but rather work hard to help others.
In the nation of Israel, criminal activity was discouraged in many ways, one of which was the punishment...which was not generally imprisonment, but rather compensation (Exodus 22:1-6). The 'thief' must 'pay back' what they stole PLUS extra. On the other hand, worshiping false gods or participating in occult practices was punishable by death(Leviticus 20:2, 27)
