Below are the listening times for a particular audio bible I like listening to, the dramatized ESV by Faith Comes By Hearing.
These are the times for the individual books, and for the sections, overall, the whole bible takes just over 80 hours, if listened to at normal speed.
It may be helpful for some people to use for planning listening. Most people read quite a bit faster than they speak, so you could probably half these amount for reading times.
