Original: I swear by Apollo the physician, and Asclepius and Hygieia and Panacea, and all the gods and goddesses as my witnesses, that, according to my ability and judgement, I will keep this Oath and this contract: Into whatever homes I go, I will enter them for the benefit of the sick, avoiding any voluntary act of impropriety or corruption, including the seduction of women or men, whether they are free men or slaves.

Whatever I see or hear in the lives of my patients, whether in connection with my professional practice or not, which ought not to be spoken of outside, I will keep secret, considering all such things to be private.

So long as I maintain this Oath faithfully and without corruption, may it be granted to me to partake of life fully and the practice of my art, gaining the respect of all men for all time.

However, should I transgress this Oath and violate it, may the opposite be my fate.

Ὀµνύω Ἀπόλλωνα ἰητρὸν καὶ Ἀσκληπιὸν καὶ Ὑγείαν καὶ Πανάκειαν καὶ θεοὺς πάντας τε καὶ πάσας ἵστορας ποιεύµενος, ἐπιτελέα ποιήσειν κατὰ δύναµιν καὶ κρίσιν ἐµὴν ὅρκον τόνδε καὶ συγγραφὴν τήνδε· ἐς οἰκίας δὲ ὁκόσας ἂν ἐσίω, ἐσελεύσοµαι ἐπ' ὠφελείηι καµνόντων ἐκτὸς ἐὼν πάσης ἀδικίης ἑκουσίης καὶ φθορίης, τῆς τε ἄλλης καὶ ἀφροδισίων ἔργων ἐπί τε γυναικείων σω άτων καὶ ἀνδρείων, ἐλευθέρων τε καὶ δούλων.

ἃ δ' ἂν ἐν θεραπείηι ἢ ἴδω ἢ ἀκούσω, ἢ καὶ ἄνευ θεραπηίης κατὰ βίον ἀνθρώπων, ἃ µὴ χρή ποτε ἐκλαλεῖσθαι εἴξω, σιγήσοµαι, ἄρρητα ἡγεύµενος εἶναι τὰ τοιαῦτα.

ὅρκον µὲν οὖν µοι τόνδε ἐπιτελέα ποιέοντι, καὶ µὴ συγχέοντι, εἴη ἐπαύρασθαι καὶ βίου καὶ τέχνης δοξαζοµένωι παρὰ πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις ἐς τὸν αἰεὶ χρόνον· παραβαίνοντι δὲ καὶ ἐπιορκέοντι, τἀναντία τούτων.
