this is best way:
Suppose:
table name is:MGT_AcademicSemesterName
attributes are:acSemId,academic
then find 4th row:
select
T1.RowNumber,T1.acSemId,T1.academicSemesterName
from
(
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY acSemId) AS RowNumber, acSemId,academicSemesterName
FROM MGT_AcademicSemesterName
) T1
where T1.RowNumber=4
