Dmitry — the number of the name, the Torah page and the verse
The name Dmitry in Hebrew letters is דמיטרי. Below: how its number adds up, which page of the Torah it falls on and what verse stands there. Everything is computed, nothing is guessed.
דמיטרי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is דמיטרי. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 273 — the same as the Torah word ארבע, “four”. That number points to Torah page 273 of 354 — in the portion Pinchas. What that portion is about: The covenant of peace with Phinehas; the second census; the daughters of Zelophehad and inheritance; Joshua the successor; the festival offerings. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 25:2. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. There are no predictions or judgments here — only the text of the Torah and arithmetic you can check.
Adding up the letters of the name דמיטרי gives 273.
273
The number 273 is the Torah word ארבע — «four» (Genesis 2:10).
The number 273, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 273 in the book of Bamidbar (Numbers). These are its opening words:
לו למה יגרע שם אבינו מתוך משפחתו כי …
The verse this place falls on is Bamidbar (Numbers) 27:3:
אָבִינוּ מֵת בַּמִּדְבָּר וְהוּא לֹא־הָיָה בְּתוֹךְ הָעֵדָה הַנּוֹעָדִים עַל־ה׳ בַּעֲדַת־קֹרַח כִּי־בְחֶטְאוֹ מֵת וּבָנִים לֹא־הָיוּ לוֹ
'Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not among the company of them that gathered themselves together against HaShem in the company of Korah, but he died in his own sin; and he had no sons.
This is from the portion Pinchas. What it is about: The covenant of peace with Phinehas; the second census; the daughters of Zelophehad and inheritance; Joshua the successor; the festival offerings.
The same number, 273, is given by these biblical names:
בערא · חסרה
Nine ways of counting
The tradition counts the same name in several ways. The main one is above: each letter is its number. The other eight are old and checkable too; each gives its own number, and many of them have a Torah word with the same number.
Final letters as 500–900 (mispar gadol) — 273. A Torah word with the same number is ארבע — “four” (Genesis 2:10).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 21. A Torah word with the same number is אך — “a particle of affirmation, surely” (Genesis 7:23).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 66. A Torah word with the same number is כמו — “a form of the prefix 'k-', but used separately…” (Genesis 19:15).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1105.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 41897.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 701.
The word that comes out is קימנגמ. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 243. A Torah word with the same number is אברם — “Abram, the original name of Abraham” (Genesis 11:26).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1483.
The number 273 appears in the classical books 3 times across 2 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

Every letter of the name explained, the words and namesakes with references, the Hebrew date, the letter and tribe of the month, the day 861 of your life, the psalm by age, the attestations from 834 works — a PDF built the moment you pay.
The name דמיטרי does not stand as a word in the Pentateuch — as with most names, including many Tanakh names from the later books.
The verse of your name
There is a custom: at the end of the prayer one says a Torah verse that begins with the first letter of one's name and ends with its last. For דמיטרי these are ד and י. The Pentateuch has 3 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 25:2:
דבר אל בני ישראל ויקחו לי תרומה מאת כל איש אשר ידבנו לבו תקחו את תרומתי
This is from the portion Terumah. What it is about: The offering for the Sanctuary; the Ark, the table and the lampstand; the Tabernacle and its curtains; the altar.

How it is counted
Each Hebrew letter has a number; a word's number is their sum (alef 1 … tav 400). The page is the remainder modulo 354: the Torah divided into 354 pages of 861 letters, as the lunar year has 354 days. Everything can be checked by hand.
