Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Here's the whole thing.

"In the name of all competitors I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern them, committing ourselves to a sport without doping and without drugs, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams."

Originally the word promise was "swear" and the phrase "honor of our teams" was "honor of our countries." These modifications were made in 1961. The phrase "without doping and without drugs" was added in 2001.
