Exegesis
The object hymas {ὑμᾶς | hymâs} precedes the temporal adverb arti {ἄρτι | ár-ti}, highlighting the addressees.
By contrast, the second clause introduced by elpizo gar {ἐλπίζω γὰρ | el-pí-zō gár} expresses an affirmative desire, with the accusative khronon tina {χρόνον τινὰ | khró-non ti-ná} indicating duration and pros hymas {πρὸς ὑμᾶς | pros hymâs} denoting relational closeness.
In context — 1 Corinthians 16:7
I do not want to see you now only in passing ; rather, I hope to remain with you for some time, if the Lord permits.
