The reason our voices sound different to us is because when we talk, we hear our voices from our middle ear where as everyone else hears our voice from our outer ear. It affects how deep we hear our voices.

Jota, you make the Bible so complicated.

"For God is not a God of confusion but of peace."-1 Corinthians 14:33

And that interpretation is not valid when held up against the Biblical text.
