Four Corners of the Earth

Is. 11:11-16 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lrd will set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, that shall remain, from Assyria [north], and from Egypt [south], and from Pathros [south], and from Cush [south], and from Elam [east], and from Shinar [east], and from Hamath [north], and from the islands of the sea [west]. And he will set up an ensign for the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and they that vex Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. And they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines on the west; together shall they despoil the children of the east: they shall put forth their hand upon Edom [south] and Moab [east]; and the children of Ammon [east] shall obey them. And the Lrd will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea [south]; and with his scorching wind will he wave his hand over the River, and will smite it into seven streams, and cause men to march over dryshod. And there shall be a highway for the remnant of his people, that shall remain, from Assyria [north]; like as there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt [south].

Four Winds

Zech. 6:1-8 And again I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between the two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze. In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot spotted, strong horses. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four winds of heaven, which go forth from standing before the Lrd of all the earth. The chariot wherein are the black horses goeth forth toward the north country; and the white went forth after them; and the spotted went forth toward the south country. And the strong went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth. Then cried he to me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, they that go toward the north country have given rest to my spirit in the north country.
