Hello,
I can understand the problem you are facing. You have to understand what he is doing is because of the illness. He has no touch with the reality and once he will improve these symptoms will go away.
Next Steps
Contact nearby psychiatric clinic for help. If there has been a history of medication been taken irregularly ask your psychiatrist to start him on long acting injections which are to be given once a month.
Health Tips
He is hearing voices and may harm himself or anyone else so be vigilant, keep away things which can harm.

I understand your dilemma as the patient's wife. You must be aware that these imaginary voices or people that they see are hallucinations due to the disease. Suicidal thoughts, violent behaviour and refusal to take medicines is a Reg Flag sign and may require hospital admission asap. Once appropriate doses are given to the patient in hospital, his symptoms will reduce and he will agree to take medicines at home as well.
Next Steps
Consult his treating psychiatrist immediately and arrange for hospital admission .
Health Tips
1) Do Not Leave the patient alone. 2) When at home, medicines should always be given under supervision.
