Translation by W.H.S. Jones.

I swear by Apollo Healer, by Asclepius, by Hygieia, by Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture.

Juro por Apolo médico, por Asclepio, Higía y Panacea, por todos los dioses y todas las diosas, tomándolos como testigos, cumplir fielmente, según mi leal saber y entender, este juramento y compromiso:

To hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture; to impart precept, oral instruction, and all other instruction to my own sons, the sons of my teacher, and to indentured pupils who have taken the Healer’s oath, but to nobody else.

Venerar como a mi padre a quien me enseñó este arte, compartir con él mis bienes y asistirles en sus necesidades; considerar a sus hijos como hermanos míos, enseñarles este arte gratuitamente si quieren aprenderlo; comunicar los preceptos vulgares y las enseñanzas secretas y todo lo demás de la doctrina a mis hijos y a los hijos de mis maestros, y a todos los alumnos comprometidos y que han prestado juramento, según costumbre, pero a nadie más.

I will use those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients according to my greatest ability and judgment, and I will do no harm or injustice to them.

Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. But I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art.

En cuanto pueda y sepa, usaré las reglas dietéticas en provecho de los enfermos y apartaré de ellos todo daño e injusticia.

I will not use the knife, not even, verily, on sufferers from stone, but I will give place to such as are craftsmen therein.

Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free.

Jamás daré a nadie medicamento mortal, por mucho que me soliciten, ni tomaré iniciativa alguna de este tipo; tampoco administraré abortivo a mujer alguna. Por el contrario, viviré y practicaré mi arte de forma santa y pura.

And whatsoever I shall see or hear in the course of my profession, as well as outside my profession in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets.

Now if I carry out this oath, and break it not, may I gain for ever reputation among all men for my life and for my art; but if I break it and forswear myself, may the opposite befall me.

No tallaré cálculos sino que dejaré esto a los cirujanos especialistas.
