Filter a query then get a row by id with SQLAlchemy

I want to get a user by id only if they don't have deleted=0. I tried

user = User.query.filter_by(deleted=0).get(id)

but got an error. How do I filter the query and get by id?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/david/.virtualenvs/flask-sqlalchemy/lib/python3.6/site-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/query.py", line 831, in get

As the error says, get only works if you haven't filtered the query. If you want to filter, filter by id as well and use first.

user = User.query.filter_by(id=id, deleted=0).first()
