  God does not make any servant truthful except that He does good for him.

  وأمثال — and examples. This token fronts the wa- 'and', which here breaks off the proverb and starts a closing remark. The noun behind it is a plural, 'examples/likenesses', and it becomes the topic of a short follow-up statement. The wa- signals a new sentence rather than continuing the previous clause.
