Command verb
وَءَامِنُوا۟ (And believe) is a command — it's telling someone to do something.
We translate it as a direct command — "[Do this]!"
Verb form IV — causative
وَءَامِنُوا۟ (And believe) uses form IV (أَفْعَلَ) — the أ at the start makes it causative ("to make someone do something").
We translate it as "to make [someone] do" or "to cause [action]".
Conjunction وَ (and)
وَءَامِنُوا۟ (And believe) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Sahih International

And believe in what I have sent down confirming that which is [already] with you, and be not the first to disbelieve in it. And do not exchange My signs for a small price, and fear [only] Me.
