I also plugged the trailer into a sound editor and the words are definitely "Defied" and "Sword", but that's not the most interesting part.
It's like "Bbq monkey" said above, Gravemind's voice seems to be there. I went back and play'd thru a bit of Halo 2 and listened to the voice of the Gravemind, then went back and listened to the trailer once again. If you listen closely when Cortana says she has "Defied Gods and Demons" you can also hear the Graveminds voice at the end of each of the words, same happens when she says "I am you Shield, I am you Sword", but it's not as pronouced as before...and then when Cortana says, " I know your past, I know your Future", you don't hear the Gravemind's voice influence at all, almost as if Cortana is regaining control of herself.
It's all speculation, but if it is the Gravemind trying to channel to the MC thru Cortana then the Idea of a Vision is not far fetched.
Only my two cents.
