Verse 18

It shall not seem hard{H7185}{(H8799)} unto thee{H5869}, when thou sendest him away{H7971}{(H8763)} free{H2670} from thee; for he hath been worth{H7939} a double{H4932} hired servant{H7916} to thee, in serving{H5647}{(H8804)} thee six{H8337} years{H8141}: and the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430} shall bless{H1288}{(H8765)} thee in all that thou doest{H6213}{(H8799)}.
