Stealing has always been considered wrong. During the Early Middle Ages, it was often punished with a fine, which was usually a multiple of the value of what was stolen. Punishments got more creative later on, but the fine was still common because it was compensation for the victim and covered the costs of the court.

Angl0-Saxon law, for example, required restitution and a fine of three times the value. So for the theft of a shilling, the law prescribed a fine of three shillings, plus restoring the original shilling.
