意思
You will be judged by the same standards you apply to others.
文化背景
In Spain, this proverb is often used in political debates on TV to highlight the 'doble rasero' (double standard) of opposing parties. In Mexico, it's common to hear this from older generations (grandparents) as a way to instill a sense of 'respeto' and humility in children. While used, Argentines might also use 'No escupas para arriba' (Don't spit upwards) to convey a similar sense of consequences returning to you. In Colombia, the phrase is often used in the context of 'justicia divina' (divine justice), emphasizing that God sees all unfair judgments.
Use it for 'Karma'
If you want to talk about 'Karma' in a more traditional or literary Spanish way, this is your go-to phrase.
Don't change the verb
Even though 'juzgar' (to judge) is what it means, the proverb loses its power if you don't use 'medir' (to measure).
