It's a verse from a gospel. The gospel of Thomas.
Please understand that not all of Jesus words and teachings were included in the Bible. I can only recommend to DYOR.

No. Thomas's "gospel" is a gnostic text. Gnosticism is of Satan. 😈
They contradict the apostolic gospel and the canon of Scripture. Gnosticism teaches salvation through secret knowledge and an inner divine spark, but Scripture teaches salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, received by the elect according to God's sovereign decree.
The Gnostic texts were written in the second century, long after the apostles, and were never recognized by the church as inspired. They distort the nature of God, Christ, and man, presenting a dualistic worldview that denies the goodness of creation and the bodily resurrection.
