walk with me

Hebrew translation: התהלך עמי

English term or phrase: walk with me
I am looking for the proper Hebrew context for "walk with me", to mean nearly the same as the phrase "walk with God" or "walk alongside me".

I have used one website: http://www.babylon.com/definition/walk with me/Hebrew
but I want to be sure the words I use are in context, there are multiple words for "walk" and "with". Anything would be helpful, thanks!

Like Enoch in Genesis:
כב וַיִּתְהַלֵּךְ חֲנוֹךְ אֶת-הָאֱלֹהִים, אַחֲרֵי הוֹלִידוֹ אֶת-מְתוּשֶׁלַח, שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת, שָׁנָה; וַיּוֹלֶד בָּנִים, וּבָנוֹת. 22 And Enoch walked with God after he begot Methuselah three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
וַיִּתְהַלֵּךְ חֲנוֹךְ אֶת-הָאֱלֹהִים
and nowadays we would say
וַיִּתְהַלֵּךְ חֲנוֹךְ עם-הָאֱלֹהִים

Notes to answerer
Asker: Ron, Thank you so much for your time. When you say "for a female" does this mean, to walk with a female, or is it a message toward a female, saying "walk with me" to a female? or does it mean it's from a female's point of view? So if God (a male) were saying to me (a female) which form would you say? You are so helpful. Thanks again, Katie

agree  Erez Volk: Note that the gender distinction here refers the "walker", not the speaker -- it doesn't matter in this case whether the speaker is male or female.
