Numbers 21:34
And the Lord said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon. (Numbers 21:34)
Fear him not.
 Such an assurance from God was needed on account of the giant stature of the men (Deut. 1:28; 3:11), and the fame of their fortifications.
