μετρηθήσεται for ἀντιμετρηθήσεται taken from parallel passage Luke 6:38. In Matthew 7:28 again the simple verb is preferred on good authority to the compound συνετέλεσεν.

2. κρίμα, ‘judgment’ either (1) in the sense of a judicial sentence as Romans 2:2, τὸ κρίμα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστὶν κατὰ�, or (2) a rule or principle of judging, apparently the meaning here. The notion of ‘censure’ or ‘condemnation’ passes into the word from the context as: οὗτοι λήμψονται περισσότερον κρίμα. Mark 12:40. The word is somewhat rare in the classics. In Æsch. Supp. 397 it means ‘the question in dispute,’ οὐκ εὔκριτον τὸ κρῖμα. For the accent see Winer’s Grammar, 57:2 and note 2. Penultimates long in Attic were sometimes shortened in later Greek, as θλίψις, ch. Matthew 24:9.
