Oracle text
The next time a source of your choice would deal damage to you this turn, prevent that damage. If damage is prevented this way, Deflecting Palm deals that much damage to that source's controller.
"Any student of history has the power to learn from the past. The great ones use it to their advantage." —Plargg, Lorehold dean

Rulings
If multiple prevention and/or replacement effects are trying to apply to the same damage, the player who would be dealt damage chooses the order in which to apply them.
Deflecting Palm doesn't target any permanent or player. You choose a source of damage as Deflecting Palm resolves.
