In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is ללי. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 70 — the same as the Torah word כן, “so, thus”. That number points to Torah page 70 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 Exodus 20:3. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Lali” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: ללי. 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.

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) — 70. A Torah word with the same number is כן — “so, thus” (Genesis 1:7).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 7. A Torah word with the same number is או — “or” (Genesis 24:49).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 34. A Torah word with the same number is לבב — “heart” (Genesis 20:5).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 265. A Torah word with the same number is אחרון — “last, rear” (Genesis 33:2).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 1900.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 160. A Torah word with the same number is כסף — “silver, money” (Genesis 13:2).
The letters that come out are ככמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 80. A Torah word with the same number is עוד — “again, still” (Genesis 4:25).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 168. A Torah word with the same number is חפף — “to cover, shelter” (Deuteronomy 33:12).
The number 70 appears in the classical books 90 times across 44 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

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 ללי 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 ללי these are ל and י. The Pentateuch has 26 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 20:3:
לא יהיה לך אלהים אחרים על פני
This is from the portion Yitro. What it is about: Jethro's counsel on judges; standing at Sinai; the Ten Utterances; “you shall not make yourself an idol”.
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.
