A direct translation would be "Y a ti también". But if you are talking about the words the priest says during Mass, before consecrating hosts, the dialogue, then, is as follows:
- El Señor esté con vosotros
- Y con tu espíritu.

- El Señor esté con vosotros
- Y con tu espíritu.

Y (que Dios te bendiga) a tí también
What is between parenthesis is optional or you can put it without "y". Translating "equally" as "igualmente" would be too literal and not very religious. For example, in Spain it is said "Que Dios esté con vosotros", and it is answered "Y con tu espíritu".

: All the answers are good but the question asked is "equal" which means "igual", now the prase says "equally" which means "igualmente"
