You might be thinking of the New Testament, which was written entirely in Koine Greek.
In the Old Testament, there are virtually no Greek words. The Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) was written in Hebrew, plus about 250 verses in Aramaic, which is closely related to Hebrew). It contains Hebrew words that were borrowed from Egyptian, Persian, and possibly a few from Greek.
The only Greek word I can think of in the entire Hebrew Bible is יָוָן (yavan), which is the Hebrew word for Greece, and comes from the Greek word "Ionia".
