Greek text · Dindorf 4:125

ὁ δʼ αὐτὸς συγγραφεὺς καὶ ἑτέρους ἀπὸ γένους ἑνὸς τῶν φερομένων ἀδελφῶν τοῦ σωτῆρος, ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰούδας, φησὶν εἰς τὴν αὐτὴν ἐπιβιῶναι βασιλείαν, μετὰ τὴν ἤδη πρότερον ἱστορηθεῖσαν αὐτῶν ὑπὲρ τῆς εἰς τὸν Χριστὸν πίστεως ἐπὶ Δομετιανοῦ μαρτυρίαν.

English · Claude translation

The same writer says that others, descendants of one of the so-called brothers of the Saviour, whose name was Jude, lived on into the same reign, after the witness for faith in Christ which they had borne under Domitian, as related before.
