achieve, win
"...achieve, win the greatest of victories..."
I believe it is derived from لاَقَى , "to meet".
definition from Ajeeb:
لاَقَى يُلاَقِي لاَق مُلاَقَاةً ولِقَاء [لقي]: - ـه: قابله وصادفه؛ لاقى صديقه في الطريق.- ـه: وجده؛ لاقى آذاناً صاغيةً/ لاقى صعوبةً في الموضوع/ لاقت البضاعةُ َروَاجاً.- بين اثنَين: وصل بينهما بعد القطيعة؛ لاقى بين الخصمَين وصالحهما/ لاقى بين طرفي القضيب.- الله: تُوُفِّي.

You shall have the greatest victory...
(in reward) for the greatest patience...
Indeed ملاقون means those who shall meet/encounter/achieve/obtain, etc., however English is not so flowery in its expressions and "have" is suffice to convey the sentiment...at least that's my feeling :-)
Achieve victory sounds okay as well IMO

meeting
You shall be meeting the greatest victory for the greatest patience.
He expressed his optimism on the outcome in another dispatch from Washington, in which he wrote, "I am certain that our struggle can only meet with victory. It only requires time, patience and persistence."
