ヒポクラテスの誓い

また、以下に引用する、西洋医学の始祖であるヒポクラテスの
誓いを日々の診療に実践しようと心がけています。

I swear by Apollo the Physician, and Aesculapius, and Health, and All-heal,
and all the gods and goddesses, that, according to my ability and judgment,
I will keep this oath and this stipulation-to reckon him who taught me this
art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my substance with him, and
relieve his necessities if required; to look upon his offspring in the same
footing as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they shall wish
to learn it, without fee or stipulation; and that by precept, lecture, and
every other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the art to my
own sons, and those of my teachers, and to disciples bound by a stipulation
and oath according to the law of medicine, but to none others. I will follow
that system of regiment which, according to my ability and judgment, I
consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is
deleterious and mischievous. I will give no deadly medicine to anyone if
asked, nor suggest any such counsel ; and in like manner I will not give to
a woman a pessary to produce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will
pass my life and practice my art. I will not cut persons laboring under the
stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practitioners of this
work. Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of
the sick, and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption
of females or males, of freemen and slaves. Whatever, in connection with my
professional practice, or not in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of
men, which ought not to be spoken of abroad, I will not divulge, as reckoning
that all such should be kept secret. While I continue to keep this oath unvio-
lated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art, respec-
ted by all men, in all times ! But should I trespass and violate this oath, may
the reverse be my lot!　　この日本語訳は ここ
