Contextual Overview
1And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying, 2"And you, son of man, do you judge? Do you judge the city of blood? Then you have caused it to know all its abominations,3and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: The city is shedding blood in its midst, || For the coming in of its time, || And it has made idols on it for defilement. 4You have been guilty by your blood that you have shed, || And you have been defiled by your idols that you have made, || And you cause your days to draw near, || And have come to your years, || Therefore I have given you [for] a reproach to nations, || And a derision to all the lands. 5The near and the far-off from you scoff at you, || O defiled of name—abounding in trouble. 6Behold, princes of Israel—each according to his arm || Have been in you to shed blood. 7They have made light of father and mother in you, || They dealt oppressively to a sojourner in your midst, || They oppressed fatherless and widow in you. 8You have despised My holy things, || And you have defiled My Sabbaths. 9Men of slander have been in you to shed blood, || And they have eaten on the mountains in you, || They have done wickedness in your midst. 10One has uncovered the nakedness of a father in you, || They humbled the menstruous woman in you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the bloody city?.... Or, "city of bloods" y? the city of Jerusalem, in which was shed the blood of the prophets sent unto her; the doubling of the word denotes the vehemency with which it was expressed: wilt thou plead for and excuse such a city as this? surely no; so some: or wilt thou do thy work and office as a prophet? hast thou courage enough to do it? will thou rebuke and reprove? as the Targum; wilt thou examine her case, judge truly, and condemn her, as thou oughtest to do? hast thou an inclination to take this affair in hand? then be directed to it, as follows:
yea, thou shalt show her all her abominations; lay them before her; convict her of them; show her the evil of them, and the punishment they deserve; every kind of sin she was guilty of; for, as for particular acts, it was impossible to reckon them; those sins that were the most flagrant, and most frequently committed, and which were abominable to the Lord, and rendered her so in his sight, are intended.
