The Greek actually reads the LAND, talking about Israel. And gathering is speaking about the four winds, which are the four horsemen if you read Zech 6 and Rev 6. Gathered from the destruction. It contrasts their gathering as a hen gathers her chicks, but they refused. SO, instead the elect are gathered.
