First, your VBA syntax is incorrect. It should be like this:
ok = selenium.getText("//html/body/div[2]/div[2]/div[2]/div/div/div/div[" & i & 
"]")

Second, I recommend you to use a CSS selector rather than an XPath and to 
search all the web elements in one command for better performance. I would do 
something like this :

    Dim methods As WebElementCollection
    Set methods = selenium.findElementsByCssSelector("div.section.steps")
    For i = 0 To methods.Count - 1
        MsgBox methods(i).Text
    Next
