No hay mal que por bien no venga

Can someone please literally translate the title to English? I know that figuratively it means "Every dark cloud has a silver lining" or something to that effect.

I've searched this site and the web but have not found a literal translation.

My translation is: "There is no bad that comes from good."

Thanks,

DeanQuest
