Given you've no internet connectivity then this is probably what you
need: create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf containing
something like:

FreeBSD: {
  enabled: no
}

That just switches off the default /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf

pkg will automatically create the sqlite database schema it needs if it
doesn't already exist.  I guess that somehow you've got a half-formed
schema -- enough to stop it automatically re-creating the whole thing,
but not enough to be usable.

Try moving aside /var/db/pkg/local.sqlite and then run something like
'pkg -vv' -- this should recreate local.sqlite
