I desperately need a translation of:
"Every man is guilty of the good he didn't do." - Voltaire
It's such a short sentence that I don't want to go to a service just for this.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

quisque bonorum non factorum reus est.
Literally, "each man is answerable for the good things which haven't been done".
I'm unfamiliar with Latin idioms concerning guilt and innocence, but that statement comes close to the sense of what you're looking for. I'm not a hundred percent about reus, either.
As for the first two, I have no idea why they think that those online programs can possibly render an accurate translation. It should be quite obvious that "didn't" is not a Latin word.

perhaps you choose greek or hebrew as a replace? Latin isn't probable a biblical language. hmmmm i do no longer comprehend what sort of present you propose, i would be figurative and use a modern in the experience of a modern to a church. Dei condonatio quid advert nobis sumus. Nostris condonatiem advert deo quid existitimus. And the observe meaning present in the experience of "god given present". Dei air of secret quid advert nobis sumus. Nostris charismem advert deo quid existitimus. stable good fortune. playstation the sentences are modular and in the order you gave on your English pattern, so which you would be able to swap them around, even in spite of the shown fact that i does not propose changing the sentences themselves. *edit* the guy above me have a much extra classy translation.
