Grammar Rules

Past tense verb
وَقِيلَ (And it will be said) is a past tense verb — the action already happened and is complete.
We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.
Passive voice
وَقِيلَ (And it will be said) is passive — the action is happening to someone, but who is doing it is not mentioned.
We translate it as "is/was [done]" — e.g. "was created", "is known".
Conjunction وَ (and)
وَقِيلَ (And it will be said) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Sahih International

And it will be said, "Invoke your 'partners,'" and they will invoke them; but they will not respond to them, and they will see the punishment. If only they had followed guidance!
