A patient diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia refuses food, stating the voices are saying the food is contaminated and deadly. Which of the following would be a therapeutic response for the nurse?

"Other people are eating the food, and nothing is happening to them."

"I understand that the voices are very real to you, but I do not hear them."

"You are safe here in the hospital; nothing bad will happen to you."

"The voices are wrong about the hospital food. It is not contaminated."
