Sixth Trumpet: The Angels from the Euphrates and the Kings of the East.

Revelation 9:13 Then the sixth angel sounded: And I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,

• The four horns of the altar are symbolic of those nations that scattered the Jews East, West, North, and South (the four winds of heaven, ie: everywhere)

• Zechariah 1:¹⁸ Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were four horns. ¹⁹ And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?”
  So he answered me, “These are the horns (Powers or Kingdoms) that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.” ²⁰ Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen. ²¹ And I said, “What are these coming to do?” So he said, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, so that no one could lift up his head; but the craftsmen (these) are coming to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations that lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

• From Nebuchadnezzar’s Statue: Daniel 7:17 ‘Those great beasts (Powers or Kingdoms), which are four, are four kings which arise out of the earth. (1. Babylon, 2. Medes & Persians, 3. Greece – Syria – Egypt – Turkey, 4. Rome ending w/ the Kingdom of the Antichrist)
