What do the Jewish and christian bible both contain?
There isn't so much a Jewish Bible, as there is the Tanakh, and the Old Testament of the Christian Bible is effectively the same as the Tanakh. This results from the fact that Christianity originated as a Jewish sect.
Do Jews use the same bible Christians use?
No, but they are quite similar. The Christian Old Testament without the Apocrypha contains the same books as the Jewish Bible in a different order and based on a different translation, so some important words are quite different. In addition, the Jewish Books of Daniel and Esther are shorter than their Christian counterparts.

Jewish Translations preserve the original order of the Hebrew Bible. Christian translations usually use a different order, created by the early Church around the 2nd Century of the common era.
