You have misspelled "souffrir" (to suffer) and it is an old French saying.
Pierre and Jankijac have translated correctly for you.
This is an old French saying which means: One must suffer in order to be beautiful (or, it is necessary to suffer in order to be beautiful).

It means as others have put it - you must suffer to be beautiful.
In German we have something with the same meaning
"Schönheit muss leiden"
It comes most probably from times where fashion was everything else than comfortable to wear (corsetts, wigs etc.) and it was really painful to were fashionable clothes e.g. at the French court in the Baroque era.

You misspelled. "Il faut souffrir pour être belle." means one has to suffer to be beautiful (feminine).
