What is the source of the passuk " ki heim chayeinu v'orech yameinu"?

EtA: I need a passuk or phrase to put on the wall of my classroom...something that says that Torah is not just for study, but it's a blueprint for life, teaches us how to live etc.
Any suggestions?

It's not a pasuk, it's a phrase from birchos krias shema of maariv.

She asked for a pasuk or a PHRASE.
It’s a phrase from the Zohar.

Thanks! I looked it up and it actually says " Ki HU chayecha V'orech Yamecha. "

Is there not a passuk that says Ki Heim chayeinu?

No, there's no pasuk ki heim Chay einiklach, although it is in maariv

LOL there's also no pasuk ki heim chayeinu. The chachomim put it in maariv based on the pasuk ki hu chayecha.

Thanks so much everyone!
Artscroll doesnt have a footnote with a source.
Do you ladies think I'm better off using Ki Hu Chayecha?

EtA. Although it seems that in the passuk in Nitzavim, Ki HU chayecha, HU refers to Hashem. In Mariv, ki heim chayeinu refers to the words of the Torah.

That's a beautiful passuk but I somehow felt that it wasn't conveying exactly the same idea.

There may be mefarshim on etz chaim hi with this idea.
imho you can also use the tefilla from arvis.
Owise parshas haazinu is a good place to look. As is tehillim chapter 119

I once had a teacher who, after a very loud noisy first day in my class (in high school), came the next day with a huge sign that said "סיג לחכמה שתיקה" 🤭.
Not really relevant to you, but it just reminded me of that.
