'O God' in the Bible
"Glory to God on high, And on earth peace among men in whom he finds pleasure."
And the shepherds went back, giving glory and praise to God for all that they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
Once, when the people were pressing round Jesus as the listened to God's Message, he happened to be standing by the shore of the Lake of Gennesaret, and saw two boats close to the shore.
Now about that time, Jesus went out, up the hill, to pray, and spent the whole night in prayer to God.
His reply, spoken to them all, was: "My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God's teaching and do what it bids."
But Jesus replied: "Rather, happy are those who listen to God's Message and keep it."
But alas for you Pharisees! You pay tithes on mint, rue, and herbs of all kinds, and pass over justice and love to God. These last you ought to have put into practice without neglecting the first.
The Pharisee stood forward and began praying to himself in this way--'O God, I thank thee that I am not like other men-- thieves, rogues, adulterers--or even like this tax-gatherer.
I fast twice a week, and give a tenth of everything I get to God.'
Meanwhile the tax-gatherer stood at a distance, not venturing even 'to raise his eyes to Heaven'; but he kept striking his breast and saying 'O God, have mercy on me, a sinner.'
Instantly he recovered his sight, and began to follow Jesus, praising God. And all the people, on seeing it, gave glory to God.
"The Emperor's," they said; and Jesus replied: "Well then, pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and to God what belongs to God."
