What keeps people from committing crimes?
What keeps people from committing the more heinous crimes (murder, theft, assault), their morality / conscience or the law and the punishment that would come if they were to be caught?
Is it one or the other? Is it a combination of both?

The reason I haven't killed anyone is because I am afraid that when I try to kill him he might over-power me and kill me instead, and because I know I'd probably get in trouble and go to jail if they found out that I did it.
Most crimes though, I wouldn't do because it's mean, and I try not to be mean to people. Some people deserve someone to be mean to them though.

The fear of ending up in jail and the fear of God's wrath.

 IMO there are different kinds of people. it is difficult to generalize. %10 of people don't care for laws, morals or even their own conscience. but the rest, %90 of people are good. however their intentions are good, they mostly depend on conditions. conditions, if one is NOT aware of his own ignorance and weakness, might lead people to commit crime. .

Humans are essentially good.
