فإنك جاهل خبل فداوم بالله على التواضع الزائد ،
For surely you are ignorant and foolish, so persist in excessive humility with God,
فَدَاوِمْ so persist
This is the bound fa- 'so' plus a command verb, 'so persist, keep at it', addressed to a single male. The fa- draws a consequence, and the imperative shape carries no separate 'you'; the doer is built into the command.
وما داوم عليه وقدمه وأمر به أفضل مما كان يفعله أحياناً، ويؤخره، ولم يأمر به
And what he persisted in and ordered is better than what he occasionally did, delayed, and did not order.
دَاوَمَ he persisted
A past-tense verb 'persisted' inside the relative clause opened by 'what', with its third-person subject built into the form. It names a completed, sustained action and waits for the preposition that will tell us what he persisted in, the doer carried in the verb itself.
