'Step' in the Bible

Yet David vowed again, saying, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your sight, and he has said, ‘Do not let Jonathan know this, or he will be grieved.’ But truly as the Lord lives and as your soul lives, there is hardly a step between me and death.”

“All around terrors frighten him,And harry him at every step.

“If my step has turned from the way,Or my heart followed my eyes,Or if any spot has stuck to my hands,

“I have no wrath.Should someone give Me briars and thorns in battle,Then I would step on them, I would burn them completely.
