Ok, I begin to understand ! Thank you, Lee and Karl ! My initial problem with 
this verse was that I couldn’t find a real oposition in the thoughts of David.
Yours

      Peter,

      I concur with Karl.  The conjunction at the beginning of verse 4 does not 
represent a continuation of the previous train of thought, but a contrast.  The 
previous verses discuss God's apparent failure to respond to the psalmist, 
which stands in stark contrast to God's past dealings with אֲבֹתֵינוּ.

      Sincerely,
      Lee Moses

        Peter:

        The Hebrew numbering is verse four.

        I think that many translators read verse four as starting a new idea,
        contrasted with what was written earlier in the psalm. Hence the ?but?.
