You haven't mixed your words at all.
Literally it means "God will pay you..." (for all good deeds)
(Bog = God ; zaplac = pay). It has an idiomatic
meaning "GOD BLESS!" (you).
Saying that it is rather an "Old Phrase" - I meant, that it's not
commonly used now in office or at work. But you're correct
in general. As "snow" says:
"It does mean GOD BLESS although ZAPLAC means 'PAY' "
So, your intuitive Polish is very good.
Best as ever -
