What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.
Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.
The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden
A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.
The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well
The word you are looking for is:
Bitcoin Price, XRP Fall. The House Just Introduced a New Crypto Bill. - Barron's
a couple of points:
αλὴθεια / Alithea.
as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.
Stefon Diggs won’t discuss the contents of his bag on the boat - NBC Sports
the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
The word has remained the same into Modern Greek
