Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَلَئِنْ (But if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Emphatic لَ (indeed)
وَلَئِنْ (But if) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".
We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.
Conditional (if/when)
وَلَئِنْ (But if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
We translate it as "if" or "when".

Sahih International

But if We should send a [bad] wind and they saw [their crops] turned yellow, they would remain thereafter disbelievers.
