'Sides of the North' in the Bible

Gomer and all its bands, The house of Togarmah of the sides of the north, And all its bands, many peoples with thee,

And thou hast come in out of thy place, From the sides of the north, Thou and many peoples with thee, Riding on horses -- all of them, A great assembly, and a numerous force.

And have turned thee back, and enticed thee, And caused thee to come up from the sides of the north, And brought thee in against mountains of Israel,
