The music of this verse begins on a note other than the tonic. My thesis is that this indicates a special connection with the prior verse. (See this post.) You can see the music for the whole psalm here. The first 6 verses are all connected in this way. It is as if each verse is annotated with the instruction attacca.
וַ֭אֲנִי
נָסַ֣כְתִּי
מַלְכִּ֑י עַל־צִ֝יּ֗וֹן הַר־קָדְשִֽׁי |
6 ♪g I myself have offered as
libation my own king, on Zion, my holy hill. |
