"forgave them even though they had done evil deeds"

# held back his anger

# did not stir up all his wrath

Asaph speaks of God's wrath as if it were a sleeping person whom God allowed to sleep and did not awaken. AT: "did not allow himself to become fully angry with them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
