Unfortunately, at this thread, on this occasion, what has been said so far fails to explain why the {Soch DIS vorgh jIQuch} is ungrammatical.
To me it's ungrammatical because "previous four years" isn't a label for a specific moment in time (a time stamp), unlike "Monday", "noon", "12 days ago". Are you trying to say "seven years ago I was happy"? That would use a time stamp - {Soch ben jIQuch} Thank you for taking the time to explain all this, but since I can't
understand what's going on here, I will continue using expressions like {Soch DIS vorgh} without the {qaStaHvIS}.
If you want to say something occurred while an amount of time occurred (a time span), you need to use {qaStaHvIS} with the amount of time. Are you trying to say "For the last seven years, I've been happy"? That would use a time span - {qaStaHvIS Soch DIS vorgh, jIQuch} - "While seven years occur, I am happy". qurgh
