ABC:Acts 9

Verse 7
Infidels.org calls as a contradiction, "Did those with Saul/Paul at his conversion hear a voice?"

Acts 9:7 And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

Acts 22:9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.

Acts 9:7 mentions that the men heard voices. Acts 22:9 says they didn't hear the voice of the One speaking to Paul. These are not contradictory statements, since they could have heard voices, but not the voice of the One who spoke to Paul.

Although some bizarre attempts have been made to suggest the Greek words translated voice and heard/hearing (phone and akouo respectively) should be translated differently in each passage, I find them unpersuasive since both are used in both passages in the same way. You can see the transliterated Interlinear for the passages using PowerBible CD (or online with Biblos.com ), which is as follows:

Acts 9:7 And  the men which  journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but  seeing no man.

Acts 22:9 And  they that were  with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but  they heard not  the voice of him that spake to me.
