The Satanic Bible is a book by Anton LaVey. The Church of Satan considers it their main text. It is a collection of essays that detail the core principles of Satanism. It is not a book about worshiping Satan. Satan in The Satanic Bible is just a symbol of freedom from the restrictive rules of Christianity and other right-hand path religions. The Satanic Bible teaches that God and the Devil do not exist, and encourages people to worship themselves instead.
