'O God' in the Bible
And it fortuned that when they had passed over the time of their banqueting round about; Job sent for them, and sanctified them, and gat up early, and offered for every one a burnt offering. For Job thought thus: "Peradventure my sons have done some offense, and have been unthankful to God in their hearts." And thus did Job everyday.
If thou wouldest now resort unto God betimes, and make thy humble prayer to the Almighty;
"I know it is so of a truth: for how may a man, compared unto God, be justified?
and will say unto God: O do not condemn me; but show me the cause, wherefore thou contendest so with me.
Wilt thou say unto God, 'The thing that I take in hand is perfect, and I am clean in thy sight'?
They say unto God, 'Go from us: we desire not the knowledge of thy ways!
"May a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?
which said unto God, 'Go from us.' And what did the Almighty do with them?
"Therefore reconcile thee unto God, and be content, so shall all things prosper with thee right well.
Then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and lift up thy face unto God.
But how may a man compared unto God be justified? Or, how can he be clean, that is born of a woman?
For if he submit himself unto God, he is gracious, and showeth him his countenance joyfully, and rewardeth man for his righteousness.
Who provideth meat for the raven, when his young ones cry unto God, and fly about for want of meat?
