Hi Vicente,
"con la misma piedra" has a different meaning. it can be used in a context like
"me pagaste con la misma piedra"
I don't really know the equivalent expression but the literal translation would be to pay back with the same stone.
The meaning of this phrase in Spanish: someone did something to you (usually not a good thing) and you do the very same thing to that person. This is not a good explanation, really...I guess I need a coffee!!!
