Für Kinder erklärt
Imagine you're playing a game and you accidentally break the rules. Your friend tells you not to be afraid because they will always be there for you, even when they need to remind you of the rules. That's what God is saying to Israel here. He will always be there and only correct them as needed, not punish them completely.
