Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Ye shall receive (apolhmyesqe). Future middle indicative of apolambanw, old verb, to get back (apo), to recover.
The recompense (antapodosin). "The full recompense," old word, in LXX, but only here in N.T., but antapodoma twice (Luke 14:12; Romans 11:9). Given back (apo) in return (anti).
Ye serve the Lord Christ (to Kuriw Xristw douleuete). As his slaves and gladly so. Perhaps better as imperatives, keep on serving.
