The sounds of whispering voices frequently appear when characters are in peril or other moments of tension. These are not random noises, but can be decoded using audio software. A detailed account of these whispers is available at The Fuselage.
Relation to the Others
Danielle Rousseau seems to associate the Whispers with the Others. She first mentions the Whispers in "Solitary" when Sayid asks if she has ever seen other people on the Island. In "Exodus, Part 2", Danielle claims that she had heard the Others whispering that they were "coming for the boy." Danielle interpreted this to mean that Aaron would be the Others' next target, while they were actually referring to Walt, whom they eventually abducted.
After the kidnapping of Walt, Shannon hears the Whispers and sees Walt in "Man of Science, Man of Faith" and "Abandoned". On these occasions Walt is drenched in water and whispers backwards. Sayid later admits that he also saw Walt shortly before Shannon’s death.
Moments before the Others attack in "Live Together, Die Alone, Part 1", Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley, and Michael hear the Whispers.
In his flash back in "The Man Behind the Curtain" Ben heard the whispers before seeing his mother at the Sonar Fence. This is showing some relation since later at the fence he met the strange man.
Relation to the "Monster"
In "Solitary", while Sayid is trekking through the jungle, he starts to hear the whispers surrounding him. At around the same time, the sound associated with the "Monster" is heard twice.
The Jungle
The majority of the whispers in the show are heard in the Jungle. When they happen, the camera tends to rotate around the characters hearing them as they look around for the source, confused.

Transcripts
A transcript is a retrospective written record of dialogue, and like a script (a prospective record) may include other scene information such as props or actions. In the case of a transcript of a film or television episode, ideally it is a verbatim record. Because closed-captioning is usually written separately, its text may have errors and does not necessarily reflect the true Canonical transcript.
Transcripts for Lost episodes up to and including "Enter 77" are based on the transcriptions by Lost-TV member Spooky with aid of DVR, and at times, closed captions for clarification. She and Lost-TV have generously granted us permission to share/host these transcripts at Lostpedia. Later transcripts were created by the Lostpedia community, unless stated otherwise below.
Disclaimer: This transcript is intended for educational and promotional purposes only, and may not be reproduced commercially without permission from ABC. The description contained herein represents viewers' secondhand experience of ABC's Lost.
Various users have been responsible for this transcription.
Hidden Whispers
Some people have found whispers hidden in the audio of other episodes that can only be found upon inspection with audio equipment. For example, there is a conversation hidden in the background while fake Henry Gale (Ben) is being interrogated by Sayid, and while Eko is confronted by the "Monster" in "The 23rd Psalm". Transcripts can be found on websites such as those in the external links section.
