In ancient times, there was no special terminology for non-jewish people. In modern times, they could be called Gentiles or simply non-jews.

In Hebrew, the term goy was used since the Middle Ages. It was a non-offensive term that referred to (other) nations. In Modern English, the term "goy" was borrowed from Hebrew, but in English it has a slightly negative connotation.
