Is this balanced?

by Vitenka (unsigned):

Seems fair, less effective than reducing the power of all opponent's creatures by two.

I can't see that anywhere as a permanent though; so this might be too cheap. Oddly; as an instant; the ability lives in blue - with Turn the Tide and black Public Execution.

by Vitenka (unsigned):

And I just realised what happens when you play a couple of copies of this against a black deck. No enchantment removal, no creatures can ever deal you damage again.

So maybe it needs to be legendary.

by jmgariepy:

Considering that Orim's Prayer is a 4 star card in Gatherer, I'd say this is much too powerful. See also: Hissing Miasma.

Better?

EDIT: Now a functional reprint of Orim's Prayer.
