We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.
Verb form IV — causative
فَأَخْرَجَ (Then he brought forth) 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 فَ (and then/so)
فَأَخْرَجَ (Then he brought forth) starts with فَ, which means "and then" or "so" — it shows sequence or consequence.
We add "and then" or "so" to show the order of events.
