looks very similar to me

Anyway here's what I think it says, please let me know a better translation:
العلم يبني للشعوب منارة والجهل يخبو منه ضوء الانجم
So....
"Knowledge builds a lighthouse/beacon for people, and ignorance takes away the star light"
is يخبو the conjugation of خبا؟
cuz I looked that up in the dictionary instead of خبو
it's a very nice saying! Where is that from? The Quran? Or the Prophet (pbuh)? Thank you for all your time in teaching us more Arabic! Speaking and listening are my absolute weakest skills and this truly helps build my conversational skills up.
