[b-greek] 1 Cor 14:10

Dear friends:

Could you please help me to translate a phrase from 1Cor 14:10:
TOSAUTA EI TUCOI GENH FWNWN EISIN EN KOSMW, KAI OUDEN AFWNWN.
The common translation is: "There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices
in the world, and no [kind] is without signification".
My question is: wouldn't it be more logical to translate the last part of
the phrase as "so many kinds of sounds, and there is nothing without
sound"? It seems to me that FWNOS used twice in the same verse should
mean the same. What do you think?

Sincerely,

Dmitriy Reznik
