εν τῃ Καινῃ Διαθηκῃ, ουτοι καλοῦνται "οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι."
I am writing in Ancient Greek not because I know Greek well, but because I hope that it will improve my fluency in reading. I got the idea for this from Adrianus over on the Latin forum here at Textkit.

In the new covenant they are called "the Jews".
Did I translate that correctly?

ναι, ω Χριστοφορε, συ εγραψας ορθως. χαιρε και συ ω Ιασον!
οταν ειπον το "η Καινη Διαθηκη," ειπον περι του "αι αγιαι γραφαι," τουτ' εστιν τα γραφεντα βιβλια.
