Oath (5)

I believe the answer is:

curse

'oath' is the definition.
(I know that oath can be written as curse)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for curse that I've seen before include "Anathema" , "Invoke evil upon" , "Trouble" , "use bad language" , "Wish harm on" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Independent, The Mirror, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Telegraph.
