“我谨此向阿波罗医师、向埃斯科拉庇俄斯（罗马神话里医药与康复之神——译者注）、海吉尔（司健康希腊女神—译者注）和潘纳西尔（万能药神—译者注）起誓，我恳请所有男女众神作证—我将按照我的能力和判断遵守以下誓言：

我将象孝敬父母一样孝敬我的主雇和导师，我将与他分享我的生命并报答我之所欠和他之所需。我将象照顾自己的兄弟一样去照顾他的儿子，如果他们没有学费或契约，我将也向他们传授这项医术。我将也向我的儿子和教导我的主雇的儿子传授这项医术，我将也向入会和已经誓言遵守职业规范的信徒传授这项医术，但我将不会向他人传授任何医术。我将按照我的能力和判断，为了我的病人的利益需要出具处方，并且决不危害任何人。即使有人恳求，我将也不会给任何人开具致死的药物，也不会给人可能致人死地的建议。我将不会给妇女流产的方法。我将坚贞我生命和医术的纯洁。即使病人罹患结石病，我将也不去给他开刀，而是把这个手术留给外科医师。我将只有为了我的病人的利益才迈进每一户住家，并绝不故意伤害任何人。女性和男性家庭成员无论是自由民还是奴隶，我将不会引诱他们或不与他们发生性接触。无论我看到或听见什么专业上的或私人的秘密，我将严守机密。如果我忠诚地信守了这个誓言，愿上帝保佑我一生辉煌和医术成功，永远受到所有男人的尊崇；可是，如果我违背或亵渎了誓言，愿灾难降临于我。

"I swear by Apollo the physician, by Aesculapius, Hygeia, and Panacea - and I call as my witnesses all gods and goddesses - that I will keep the following oath according to my ability and judgement:
I will respect my master and teacher just as much as I respect my parents, and I will share my life with him and pay him everything that I owe him and he needs. I will consider his sons as my own brothers, and teach them this art if they so desire without fee or contract. I will teach this art also to my sons and the sons of the master who taught me and to the disciples who have enrolled themselves and have agreed to the rules of the profession, but I will teach it to none other. I will prescribe what is necessary for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgement, and I will never do harm to anyone. I will not prescribe a deadly drug to anyone, even  if asked, nor will I give advice which may cause someone's death. I will not give a woman the means for an abortion. I will preserve the purity of my life and my art. I will not use a knife, even on patients who suffer from stone, but will leave this operation to surgical specialists. I will enter every house only for the good of my patients and never with the intention to harm anyone. I will not seduce or have sexual contact with the female or male household members, whether they are free or slaves. Whatever secrets I see or hear, professionally or privately, I will keep secret and tell no one.
If I keep this oath faithfully, may I prosper in my life and my art, respected by all men for all time; but if I transgress or violate it, may the opposite happen to me."
