Walang sinuman ang napakabuti na 'di niya kailangang maligtas.
Explanation:
The context of the translation I provided is based on the Christian faith and what the Bible teaches -- "no one is righteous, all have sinned, and everyone needs to be saved from the punishment of sin".

Reference Bible verses:
Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”
Romans 3: 9, 10 (NTE) - What then? Are we in fact better off? No, certainly not. I have already laid down this charge, you see: Jews as well as Greeks are all under the power of sin. This is what the Bible says: No one is in the right – nobody at all!

In other Tagalog regions, the locals may alternatively say, "Walang sinuman ang sobrang buti na 'di na kailangang iligtas".

walang sinumang mabuti na hindi niya kailangang maligtas


Explanation:
Basically it is the very heart of Christian Faith and this biblical truth was anchored in the epistle of apostle Paul to the Romans. Paul said, as it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one; Romans 3:10 (ESV); For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5:6 (ESV).

Also, in the Calvinistic view (John Calvin's Theology), the man doesn't have the capability to save himself because he is spiritually dead. Which brings to a famous and classical question back in the days of reformers "How can a dead man save himself when in fact he can't move or breath on his own?"
