Now you, son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the city of blood?
This rhetorical question functions as a command. AT. "Son of man, go and judge. Go and judge the city of blood." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
son of man
"son of a human being" or "son of humanity." God calls Ezekiel this to emphasize that Ezekiel is only a human being. God is eternal and powerful, but humans are not. See how you translated this in Ezekiel 2:1. Alternate translation: "mortal person" or "human"
the city of blood
The word "blood" is a metonym for murder. Alternate translation: "the city where many people murder their neighbors" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)
her
The word "her" refers to Jerusalem. Cities were often thought of as a woman. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-gendernotations and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification)
