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?.
