Asaliah
The angel whose name means “the just God who indicates truth” — whose office is the contemplation of the works of God; clarity of judgement.
Asaliah is the 47th of the seventy-two angels of the Shem HaMephorash — the divided Name of God, drawn from the three verses of seventy-two letters each in Exodus 14:19–21. The name Asaliah means the just God who indicates truth. The angel’s office is the contemplation of the works of God; clarity of judgement.
A note on this material
The seventy-two Shem HaMephorash angels are the angelic counterpart to the seventy-two demons catalogued in the Lesser Key of Solomon. Each Shem angel countermands a specific Goetia spirit. The site presents these as a defensive catalogue: the reader who recognises the pattern of the demon’s office is given the name of the angel who answers it.

The office Asaliah holds
The tradition assigns to Asaliah the office of the contemplation of the works of God; clarity of judgement. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — contemplation of the works of God; clarity of judgement — calls on Asaliah by name. The call is not a request for spectacular intervention. The call is the older grammar’s way of placing the matter in the keeping of the angel whose office it is.
Call on Asaliah when the pattern of contemplation of the works of God; clarity of judgement has touched your life and the natural remedies have not been sufficient.
The psalm verse
Each of the seventy-two Shem angels is paired with a psalm verse the tradition assigns as the angel’s standing prayer. The verse for Asaliah is:
“How great are thy works, O Lord! Thy thoughts are very deep!” Psalm 92:5
The verse is the standing call. Speak it, or write it, or hold it silently — it is the form the tradition gives for placing the matter under Asaliah’s office.
The Goetia pair
In the countermanding tradition, Asaliah stands against the Goetia spirit Uvall — the 47th spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Uvall’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Asaliah.

How the tradition prescribes the call
- Name the pattern. Write down, clearly, the specific way you suspect the influence is operating. Vague suspicion gives the influence cover.
- Call on Asaliah by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
- Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 92:5 is the standing prayer assigned to Asaliah. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
- Carry the paired stone. Topaz is the stone the tradition pairs with Asaliah’s choir, the Virtues. Worn near the throat or carried in the pocket for the duration.
- Repeat for forty days. The tradition is consistent on this duration — long enough to break a settled pattern.
