Both ways. It just depends on whether it's a verb or a noun.

There's a term for this. Pronunciation for different uses. OBject is normally used for court rooms and yelling like a spiky haired lunatic. obJECT is normally used to make clear a specific thing or point.

OBject can be used to describe any noun that isn't living. =D
