Exegesis
The explanatory conjunction kilkha ulzarakhkha {כִּֽי־לְךָ וּלְזַרְעֲךָ} ‘for to you and to your offspring’ introduces etten {אֶתֵּן | ʾettēn} ‘I will give,’ whose direct object etkolhaaretsot hael {אֶת־כָּל־הָֽאֲרָצֹת הָאֵ֔ל} ‘all these lands’ denotes the full territorial grant.
In context — Genesis 26:3
Stay as a sojourner in this land, and I will be with you and will bless you; for I will give all these lands to you and to your descendants, and I will confirm the oath I swore to Abraham your father.
