3:12 Victorious Christians are secure in God’s household since, like pillars, . . . they will never have to leave it.
• The name of . . . God that is inscribed on them portrays God’s ownership and the security Christians thus enjoy (see 7:4; 14:1).
• The new Jerusalem is not a realm constructed by humans, but is God’s gift from heaven (21:2-10).
• A new name was a sign of God’s blessing (see also 2:17); Abram, Jacob, Simon, and others were given new names (Gen 17:5; 32:28; John 1:42).

˱I˲_/will_be/_making him /a/_pillar in the temple ˱of˲_the God ˱of˲_me
Jesus is speaking as if he would literally make a faithful and victorious believer a pillar in God’s temple. This likely symbolizes that the believer will always be in God’s temple, just as a pillar is a permanent fixture. (Indeed, Jesus says specifically that this believer will not leave the temple anymore.) If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I will have him remain always in the temple of my God”
