How to copy multiple scp files?

Question

linux

Through find I get a list of files from a remote computer via ssh, put them in the $lists variable.
Next, I want to copy them to the local computer.

scp -r -i ~/.ssh/key [email protected]:$lists ~/dir/

copies the first file, gives an error on the following:
cp: cannot stat '/home/files/3.txt': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat '/home/files/4.txt': No such file or directory

What's wrong, thanks.

Answer 1

mkdir /tmp/11
Now all that remains for us on the server from which we are copying is to execute 1 command.
tar cvfz - /home/bitrix/ext_www/site.ru.ru/upload/mail/ |ssh [email protected] "cd /tmp/11;tar xvfz -"
will compress everything into 1 file and stream it to that server by unpacking it
