The name Jahath in Hebrew letters is יחת. 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.
יחת
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is יחת. A Tanakh name: the name of four Israelites (first in 1 Chronicles 4:2; 8 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “unity”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 418 — the same as the Torah word חתי, “Hittite”. That number points to Torah page 64 of 354 — in the portion Vayeshev. What that portion is about: Joseph's dreams and his sale by his brothers; Judah and Tamar; Joseph in Potiphar's house and in prison; the dreams of the butler and the baker. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Isaiah 35:1. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Jahath” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: יחת. A name from the Tanakh — its Tanakh spelling is used. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
Adding up the letters of the name יחת gives 418.
418
The number 418 is the Torah word חתי — «Hittite» (Genesis 15:20).
And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
This is from the portion Vayeshev. What it is about: Joseph's dreams and his sale by his brothers; Judah and Tamar; Joseph in Potiphar's house and in prison; the dreams of the butler and the baker.
Other 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) — 418. A Torah word with the same number is חתי — “Hittite” (Genesis 15:20).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 13. A Torah word with the same number is אחד — “one” (Genesis 1:5).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 40. A Torah word with the same number is חלב — “fat” (Genesis 4:4).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1586.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 160164.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 446.
The letters that come out are מסא — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 101. A Torah word with the same number is יצא — “to go out” (Genesis 1:12).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 844. A Torah word with the same number is בשבעתיכם — “in your Feast of Weeks” (Numbers 28:26).
The number 418 appears in the classical books 4 times across 4 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 418. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
Hebrew is written from right to left. יחת has 3 letters: י Yod, ח Chet, ת Tav. The first letter is Yod, the last is Tav.
For an engraving, a sign or a tattoo, show the spelling to someone who reads Hebrew: transliterating a name is a choice, not the only option.
The name יחת 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
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with י and ends with ת. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 20 such verses. The first of them is Isaiah 35:1:
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.
