Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَلَقَدْ (And indeed) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Emphatic لَ (indeed)
وَلَقَدْ (And indeed) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".
We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.

Sahih International

But We have certainly tried those before them, and Allāh will surely make evident those who are truthful, and He will surely make evident the liars.
