In the Bible, the term can be used figuratively to refer to the concepts of sound, communication, and/or obedience. - -## Translation Suggestions - -* The expression “to hear someone’s voice” can mean either “to hear someone speaking” or “to heed what someone says.” -* The Bible describes God as “speaking” and having a “voice,” even though God doesn’t have a physical body in the same way a human being does. -* The term “voice” sometimes implies the presence of a person, as in this statement: “A voice is heard in the desert saying, ‘Prepare the way of the Lord.’” This could be translated as “A person is heard calling out in the desert….” (See: [synecdoche](rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche)) -* However, sometimes the word “voice” is used for objects that cannot literally speak, such as when David exclaims in the psalms that the heavens have a “voice” that reaches the whole earth. This means that the objects in the sky communicate something to human beings about God the Creator.
