12:3 yvsd rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy בְךָ֔ 1 This phrase refers to Abram and his descendants, including ultimately the Messiah.

God blessed all people on earth by sending his Son Jesus (the Messiah/Christ) to die in their place and pay for all their sins (John 3:16-18, 1 Timothy 2:3-6), so that they could have a close relationship with him/God and be part of his family forever. God repeats this great promise in Genesis 18:18; 22:18; 26:4; 28:14. You could put some of that information in a footnote.
