Lecture on SB 5.5.1-2 -- Paris, August 12, 1973:

Jyotirmayī: Is the God of love, does He punish man?

Prabhupāda: Yes. God has got two business. Maintenance and punishment. That is stated in Bhagavad-gītā, paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām (BG 4.8). That the government has got the law to give protection to the obedient citizens, and to send the rascals to the prison house.

Jyotirmayī: She said that these laws, these laws are only laws which exist in the human world, but that God doesn't lave these lews.

Prabhupāda: Human laws are imitation of God's laws. In the Vedānta-sūtra it is said, janmādy asya yataḥ (SB 1.1.1). The absolute truth is that from where everything emanates. So this human law has come from God. It is only imitation, imperfectly presented, but the principle is the same.
