There wasn't a Roman god called Judith.
Jana (Etruscan) Consort of Janus, and Goddess of secrets, mysteries, and hidden things.
Janus (Etruscan) God of time, space, and passage. Guardian of roadways and gates, and presiding over all beginnings and cycles. He can see past, present, and future, and is responsible for the orderly movement of people and ideas through their appointed rounds. He is an example of the Roman obsession with boundaries, edges, transfer from one state to another, and organization. His consort is Jana.
Juno IConsort of Jupiter and queen of Heaven. Similar in most respects to the Hellenic Hera, Juno was considered the Protectress of Women ans Patroness of the Matronly virtues.As with Her Greek counterpart, she suffers from jealous rages at her Consort's constant infidelities, although the Latins tended to downplay this somewhat from the Greek model, since Roman notions of appropriate feminine conduct differ somewhat from Hellenic.
Juno IIAny of a class of Spirits, each one the Guide and Protector of a particular person of female gender. Similar in most respects to the modern idea of a Guardian Angel. See also Genius.
Jupiter Lord of the Universe, and King of Heaven. As with nearly all Aryan Gods of Sovereignty, He is a sky-lord, and his chief instrument of power is the thunderbolt. Similar in many respects to the Hellenic Zeus. Differences in personality are subtle, but real; Jupiter has more of the Roman character trait of Gravitas (dignity, stolid propriety) than Zeus, while Zeus is rather a bit more tempermental and spontaneous than Jupiter.
Juterna Goddess of hot springs, mineral baths, brooks and ponds. As such, She has healer aspects.
Juventas Goddess of youth and youthful activity. Closely paralleling the Hellenic Hebe.
Kulmu (Etruscan) Protector of tombs; He is always shown bearing shears and a torch.

Judith is not a Roman goddess. Judith seems to come from Judas, Judée.

Judith is a Hebrew female name. Nothing to do with Rome.
You may have confused it with Juno, Roman goddess of marriage, queen of the heavens or possibly Janus, the god of doorways.

In Hebrew the suffix -ith signifies female, as -ess does in English (actress).
Judith therefore means jewess - certainly not Roman.

The only Judith of antiquity that I am able to find is the Jewish heroine who beheads the Assyrian general Holofernes at a feast.
