In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is לשק. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 430 — the same as the Torah word נפש, “soul, living being”. That number points to Torah page 76 of 354 — in the portion Miketz. What that portion is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Psalms 2:1. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.

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) — 430. A Torah word with the same number is נפש — “soul, living being” (Genesis 1:20).
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) — 52. A Torah word with the same number is בן — “son” (Genesis 3:16).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1795.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 100900.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 790. A Torah word with the same number is תשיעי — “ninth” (Leviticus 25:22).
The word that comes out is כבד. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 26. A Torah word with the same number is והיה — “and it became” (Genesis 2:10).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 620. A Torah word with the same number is עשרים — “twenty” (Genesis 6:3).
The number 430 appears in the classical books 26 times across 10 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 לשק 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 ל and ends with ק. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 2 such verses. The first of them is Psalms 2:1:
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.
