Roni — the number of the name, the Torah page and the verse
The name Roni in Hebrew letters is רוני. 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.
רוני
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is רוני. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 266 — the same as the Torah word סור, “to turn off”. That number points to Torah page 266 of 354 — in the portion Balak. What that portion is about: Balak hires Balaam; the donkey sees the angel; blessing instead of curse: “how goodly are your tents, O Jacob”. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 16:29. 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 רוני gives 266.
266
The number 266 is the Torah word סור — «to turn off» (Genesis 8:13).
The number 266, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 266 in the book of Bamidbar (Numbers). These are its opening words:
אתו אשמר לדבר ויאמר אליו בלק לך נא …
The verse this place falls on is Bamidbar (Numbers) 23:12:
וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמַר הֲלֹא אֵת אֲשֶׁר יָשִׂים ה׳ בְּפִי אֹתוֹ אֶשְׁמֹר לְדַבֵּר
And he answered and said: 'Must I not take heed to speak that which HaShem putteth in my mouth?'
This is from the portion Balak. What it is about: Balak hires Balaam; the donkey sees the angel; blessing instead of curse: “how goodly are your tents, O Jacob”.
The same number, 266, is given by these biblical names:
חברון · בחורים · ארניה · סור
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) — 266. A Torah word with the same number is סור — “to turn off” (Genesis 8:13).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 14. A Torah word with the same number is יד — “a hand” (Genesis 3:22).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 50. A Torah word with the same number is כל — “the whole” (Genesis 1:21).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1066.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 42636.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 928.
The word that comes out is גפטמ. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 132. A Torah word with the same number is בלק — “Balak, a Moabitish king” (Numbers 22:2).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 648. A Torah word with the same number is מחרת — “the morrow or” (Genesis 19:34).
The number 266 appears in the classical books 1 time across 1 work. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

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 רוני these are ר and י. The Pentateuch has 2 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 16:29:
ראו כי ה׳ נתן לכם השבת על כן הוא נתן לכם ביום הששי לחם יומים שבו איש תחתיו אל יצא איש ממקמו ביום השביעי
This is from the portion Beshalach. What it is about: The parting of the sea and the song of Moses and Miriam; manna and quail; water from the rock; the war with Amalek.

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.
