In Biblical Hebrew, it was normal to start most sentences with a conjunction such as "and, "but," "or," or "for" to show the connection between sentences. In English, people do not normally start sentences with these words.

Often in English, it is best to leave the idea of connection between sentences implicit and not translate the conjunction explicitly.
