Synu człowieczy, obróć twarz swoję ku Jeruzalem, a rozpuść słowa twe ku miescom świętym, a prorokuj przeciw izraelskiej ziemi.
Synu człowieczy! obróć twarz swoję ku Jeruzalemowi, a krop jako rosą przeciwko miejscom świętym, i prorokuj przeciwko ziemi Izraelskiej,
Synu człowieczy! Skieruj wzrok ku Jerozolimie i przemów o jej świątyni. Prorokuj przeciw ziemi Izraela.
Synu człowieka! Zwróć swe oblicze na drogę ku południu oraz rozlewaj mowę o ziemi południa; prorokuj o lesie południowego pola.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem,.... Which shows that this city was meant by "the south", Ezekiel 20:46:
and drop thy word toward the holy places; which also are meant by the south in the passage referred to, even the holy land, holy city, and holy temple; or the temple itself is only meant, with the courts adjoining to it; or as consisting of three parts, as Kimchi, the porch, the temple, and the oracle; or the outward court, the holy place, and the holy of holies; and it may respect all other places for sacred worship, as their synagogues, both in city and country; which were not to be spared any more than the temple, nor were they, Psalms 74:7. Jarchi thinks that the destruction both of the first and second temple is here intended; and which sense Kimchi also mentions.
And prophesy against the land of Israel: by which it appears that this is intended by the "forest of the south field": even the numerous inhabitants of it in general, as well as the city of Jerusalem,
Ezekiel 20:46.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The first word of judgment Ezekiel 21:1-7. Ezekiel speaks first to the people of Israel, shows the universality of the coming destructions, and indicates by a sign (that of sighing) the sadness of the calamity.
The words and order of words are identical with Ezekiel 20:45-46, except that for âsouth,â there are substituted:
(1) âJerusalem;â
(2) âthe holy place,â i. e., the temple and its various parts;
(3) âthe land of Israel.â
No subterfuge is left for the people to pretend misunderstanding.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 21:2. Set thy face toward Jerusalem — This is a continuation of the preceding prophecy; and in this chapter the prophet sets before them, in the plainest language, what the foregoing metaphors meant, so that they could not complain of his parables.
