Grammar Rules

Verb form IV — causative
وَأُمْلِى (And I will give respite) 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)
وَأُمْلِى (And I will give respite) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Sahih International

And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.
