### Matins responsory pools: `jdc` (Judges) — composed, no liturgical precedent (2026-09-05)
User-directed: compose Judges' own responsory from Gideon's trumpet-and-pitchers stratagem at the
camp of Madian (Jdc 7:17-20), on the verse's own merit — like `jos`, since Judges has no citation
anywhere in the reference source at all, Horas or Missa.
Considered and set aside: the Song of Deborah's closing benediction (Jdc 5:31) has no natural second
verse to pair with it without inventing one; Samson's dying prayer (Jdc 16:28-30) was set aside as an
uncomfortable emphasis for a Matins responsory (a prayer for strength to kill himself with his
enemies). Gideon's cry won out as the single most recognizable line in the book, and — like
`ruth`/`jos` before it — the passage is already a command/fulfillment structure that maps directly
onto R./V. form: R. is v.17-18 (Gideon's command to the three hundred men); V. is v.19-20's
fulfillment, trimmed to its own core clause (dropped v.20's "in tribus locis... hydrias
confregissent" middle as restating what "conplodere lagoenas" already said), landing the versicle
directly on the iconic cry itself: "Gladius Domini, et Gedeonis."
Source (`jdc-7.yml`) has no accents, like `jos-24.yml`; Latin hand-accented, cross-checked
word-by-word against already-accented occurrences elsewhere in the corpus (`vidéritis`, `fácite`
— matching the "Hoc fácite" idiom's own established accenting — `ingrédiar`, `sectámini`,
`personáverit`, `castrórum`, `circúitum`, `clángite`, `conclamáte`, `tenuérunt`, `mánibus`,
`sonántes`, `clamaverúntque`, `Gládius`, `Gedeónis`, `Gedeóni`); `sinistris`/`dextris` left
unaccented, matching this corpus's own consistent practice for those two specific words even where
the general accenting rule would suggest otherwise. Also caught: the source's own English for v.18
is incomplete (drops "et conclamate, Domino et Gedeoni" entirely, ending mid-sentence) — supplied
the missing clause from the standard Douay-Rheims wording rather than reproducing that gap.
Keyed `jdc:` (`BOOK_ALIASES` maps `judg` to this canonical id). `npm test` (2029 passed) and
`tsc --noEmit` both pass; live-verified through `getBiblePlanReadings` (`easter-6`/Wednesday
resolves real, correctly R./V.-formatted text in both languages for `Judg 7`).
